Ronan Keating and wife Storm have revealed they are expecting a baby girl and are "super excited" to welcome their second child together, despite the former Boyzone star having "too many kids".
The former singer and his wife announced back in November that they are preparing to welcome their newborn and already have a son - Cooper, two, together.
This will be Ronan's fifth child as he is already dad to Jack, 20, Missy, 18, and Ali, 14, from his first marriage with Yvonne Connolly.
Speaking to OK! magazine, Storm joked: "I've always wanted at least one of each sex so I'm feeling very blessed. That's five kids in total now, so that's enough, we're going to have to get Ro to have the snip."
While the 42-year-old said: "We've known for a while whether we've been having a boy or a girl and it's been really hard keeping it a secret."
Australian-born Storm added: "People keep asking if we know and we're like, 'We do, but we're not saying yet!'"
Ronan admitted "it's super exciting" that the pair are having a baby girl, and that "we are very lucky".
Overwhelmed Storm said she "secretly hoped" for a girl the first time, but after Cooper's birth she was convinced "I could easily have another boy".
She continued: "We're a little anxious about having a girl and the different dynamic that might bring."
Ronan added: "People say that girls can be trickier. With Cooper being such a dream we're scared we can't get that lucky twice."
The chuffed couple met in 2010 when Ronan was a judge on Australian X Factor, and Storm worked as a producer.
Ronan and Storm have been married for five years, and tied the knot in August 2015.
He split with his ex wife in 2010 after having an affair with Boyzone back-up dancer Francine Cornell. The pair finalised their divorce in 2015, before he married Storm.
