Wales and Scarlets star Hadleigh Parkes and wife Suzy are expecting their first child.
The couple, who tied the knot last summer, made the news public while relaxing on holiday in Italy.
Suzy confirmed the happy news at the weekend when sharing a holiday snap of the couple posing for a picture on a hilly, cobbled street in Bellagio, near Lake Como.
The caption read: "Making the most of date nights before the third wheel arrives #soontobefamilyof3 #babyparkes".
The happy news comes a year after the pair got married in Auckland, New Zealand.
Kiwi Parkes moved to Wales in 2014 after signing for the Scarlets and three years later, in December 2017, he made his international debut against South Africa.
Since then, he has since gone on to shine in the red jersey and played a key role in the 2019 Six Nations' Gland Slam.
The couple's July break in Italy came after the Scarlets centre spent two weeks in Switzerland as part of Wales' 42-man Rugby World Cup training squad for altitude training. Here's a behind-the-scenes look into how brutal the two-week training camp was.
