In true celeb style, he revealed the news to fans and friends on Twitter.

“Myself and my wife @JodiWonderland are delighted to say we are expecting our first baby! We are so happy and cannot wait to be parents x”

Jodi has recently swapped acting to become a member of girl band Wonderland. The band supported Westlife on tour and are managed by Kian. In fact Jodi had to audition to her husband to win a part in the band. However, her music plans may be put on ice for a while, as she prepares for their new arrival.

Kian will be the fourth member of the original line-up of Westlife to become a dad.

Shane Filan has three children, Nicky Byrne has twin sons, former member Brian McFadden has two daughters with Kerry Katona, which only leaves Mark Feehily. Mark, who came out as gay in 2005, has revealed that he’s also considered becoming a parent with his long-term partner Kevin McDaid.

"I would take some serious time to look into all the options. Everybody's got their own circumstances, so there's no simple answer about what's going to be right for you or the kid."
