Yesterday (January 9), David and Victoria Beckham announced that they are expecting their fourth child, reports People.
"David and Victoria Beckham are delighted to confirm they are expecting their fourth child in the summer," their rep told the magazine. "Brooklyn, Romeo and Cruz are very excited about the arrival of their new brother or sister."
The famous English couple admitted that it was a pretty full household with three sons ages, 11, 8, and 5, but hinted last year that they were open to the idea of having another child.
“I think one day, if we’re blessed to have more children, it would be amazing," Victoria, 36, said last year when asked about additional kids with her soccer star husband. "It’s a lot having three boys … But who knows, one day?"
The couple’s business partner and mentor, Simon Fuller, creator of the Idol franchise, was the first to congratulate the couple.
"I’m absolutely thrilled for them," Fuller said. "Family means everything to David and Victoria and this is simply the best news they and the boys could have wished for at the start of 2011."
