The One Show's new host Jermaine Jenas is expecting his first son with his wife Ellie Penfold.
Former Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Jermaine, 38, has joined the BBC talk show as one of Alex Jones' co-hosts - making his first official appearance on the show last night.
TV presenter Alex prompted Jermaine to share the exciting announcement when the show kicked off.
"There's some other good news, can we share?" she asked him.
Jermaine replied: "Of course... yes I have a baby on the way.
"And it's a boy! Very excited in our house."
Jermaine is already a proud dad to two girls - Geneva, eight, and Olivia, four. He also has a 14-year-old daughter, Sancha, from a previous relationship.
"The four year old hasn't taken it that well to be honest with you," he continued.
"Meanwhile, the eight year old is already practicing."
Jermaine is very loved-up with his wife Ellie, although not much is known about their low-profile relationship.
He previously described the time he met her as "love at first sight, but not for her" to the Belfast Telegraph during the 2018 World Cup. They have been married since 2011.
Jermaine is set to appear on The One Show from Mondays to Wednesdays, with Ronan Keating on Thursdays and Fridays.
The One Show editor Rob Unsworth said: "We're thrilled to have Ronan and Jermaine join us as the regular One Show hosts alongside Alex on the sofa.
"It's an exciting new chapter for the show, and we're looking forward to viewers getting to know a different side to such well-known faces."
*The One Show airs weekdays at 7pm on BBC1.
