Josh Duhamel is expecting his second child with his wife Audra Mari.

The 32-year-old former beauty queen announced the happy news in a sweet social media post in which she revealed the couple are expecting a daughter - adding the first little girl to the family after they previously welcomed a son named Shepherd, who was born in 2024, while Josh is also dad to Axl, 12, with his first wife Fergie.

In a post on Instagram, Audra wrote: "Adding a little girl to our story.. We can’t wait to meet you."

She added a number of pictures showing off her baby bump.

The news comes just days after Josh opened up about how he met Audra - who he married in 2022 - explaining they first laid eyes on each other during a barbecue at his house and he ruled out dating her because of the 21-year age gap between them.

The Transformers star, 53, made the confession during an appearance on The Skinny Confidential podcast, saying: "We had a barbecue at my house ..

"She and I had been in contact because I knew she was from North Dakota, she'd done really, really well in Miss USA [beauty pageant]. I wasn't even inviting her because I wanted to date her because she was too young for me to be honest.

"I wasn't looking for [that]. I'm not going to be that dude. So I invited her and she comes to the door and I'm like: 'Holy s***. [She's] so beautiful.'

"I was still like: 'No, no, no'."

However, Josh was won over by Audra after seeing the way she interacted with the children at the barbecue - admitting she came across as "really wholesome" and reminded him of "home".

He added: "I remember her taking care of these kids at the party, making sure they had enough [to eat] and I was like that reminds me of home and the kind of girl I want to really be with.

"And I'd gone through a couple of relationships with girls here in LA and it just wasn't the same. There's something really wholesome about it and I think that was when I was like: 'Maybe she's not too young' ... Maybe I am that dude. I don't know. "

He went on to add: "[Now] we have a two year old ... [We've been married for] three years and we've been together for like seven ... "
