Hollywood actor Chris Pratt and Katherine Schwarzenegger are having another baby! The lovely news that the pair are expecting their second child together comes just over a year after they welcomed their first child, daughter Lyla Maria, who arrived in August 2020.

Announcing the news, People took to their Instagram to share a sweet snap of the happy couple, writing: 'Baby on the way! 🍼 Chris Pratt and Katherine Schwarzenegger are expecting their second child together, PEOPLE can exclusively confirm.'

Actor Chris Pratt and author Katherine Schwarzenegger, who is the oldest child of actor Arnold Schwarzenegger, got married back in 2019, welcoming their first child together just one year later.

The lovely news comes just days after Chris took to his Instagram to share a touching message to his wife to celebrate her birthday. A loved-up Chris wrote: 'Happy Birthday Honey! You are such a wonderful wife, mother, step-mother, and life partner. I simply can’t imagine how lost I’d be without you.

'You’re beautiful, tough as nails, reasonable, deeply thoughtful, extraordinarily smart, you’re a complete boss, eternally driven and you communicate like no other. Thank you for everything. Thank you for being so instrumental in my growth over the past few years. We fit so perfectly into each other’s lives that our Union is a daily reminder that God is looking out for us.

'Navigating the odd circumstances of our world is a task I cannot handle alone. And I’m so grateful I don’t have to. Your commitment to helping others is contagious. I’m just so grateful for the harmony you continually bring to our household. I love you so much honey. Happy Birthday!'
