A thrilled Robbie Williams has revealed that he and his wife Ayda are expecting their first baby.

In a statement on his personal blog, joker Robbie wrote, “We had sex! It works!”

He added, “We’ve seen scans and cried. We’ve looked at babies in commercials and teared up.

“The nursery is already planned. Basically I’m in love with a little person growing in mummy’s belly.

“And I can’t wait to be a daddy. Crying now.”

Robbie ended the statement by saying, “Much love, much joy. Roberto, Mum and Little Bump.”

Of the news, Robbie’s dad, Pete Conway, told the Sun, “Robbie and Ayda are both wonderful. They have known for 12 weeks or so.

“They went for the scans to make certain before anything was said officially. I have no idea about the due date.

“They will be coming over here in a couple of months so I’ll see them then.

“I expect they’ll have the baby in America. It’s nice to be expecting an American grandchild.”

And Robbie’s friend, TV presenter Jonathan Wilkes, added, “Thank god. That’s the biggest secret I’ve ever kept. I’m so proud of my mate and Ayda.

“They are gonna be amazing parents.”

Robbie revealed last year that he and Ayda were trying for a baby. At the time, he said, “Next time we go on tour there will be a little Williams in the dressing room.

“Baby girl or baby boy? I’m truly not bothered as long as we have a healthy baba. I can play footie with a boy, but a girl would defo be a daddy’s girl.

“So we would be blessed with either. It’s about time. I’ve had a good innings.”

Aww congrates Robbie and Ayda!
