Wales international Taulupe Faletau and his wife Charlotte are expecting their third child, they have announced.
The couple, who married in 2019, posted a sweet video on Instagram to announce the news. They already have two children together: Israel, born in September 2016, and Ezekiel, born in January 2019.
In the announcement video, Charlotte, sister of former Wales footballer Gareth Bale's wife Emma Rhys-Jones, can be seen telling the Wales No. 8 the good news.
Faletau is currently in camp with Wales, with the three-time Lions tourist almost certain to start against Ireland this weekend, with Warren Gatland naming his Wales team on Tuesday.
Their family news has been met with an outpouring of love, with Leigh Halfpenny's fiancée Jess Tumelty posting in response: "So lush".
Ellis Jenkins' wife Sophie Evans responded by saying "the best", while Faletau's team-mate and Cardiff captain Josh Turnbull posted: "Congratulations both awesome news".
Faletau has previously spoken about how fatherhood had changed his perspective, showing him there was more to life than just rugby. He also revealed last year how much support Charlotte has offered throughout his career.
“I think everyone knows I am not really a person to say much,” he said. “But when I have something to say, it will probably be my wife I say it to. She gets everything else that I don’t let off at work. I tell her. She’s the person I talk to and she’s the one that kind of points me in the direction she thinks I should go.
“She is the one who has supported throughout the whole thing. My parents as well sometimes, but they know that I keep myself to myself. So, yeah, my wife has been a big supporter in each set-back I’ve had. She’s patient in these scenarios.”
