Richard Wilkins' joyful family news

Richard Wilkins is ready to embrace the "Granddaddy Pappa Bear" role once again, after announcing that his son Nick and wife Bree are expecting their first child together. 

The veteran TV presenter, 69, told Today Extra that his son is expecting a daughter sometime in April, and he couldn't hide his excitement. 

"Our little family is very excited!" he told the Today Extra hosts.

"I just wanted to say and share it with everybody that my beautiful son Nick, who got married to beautiful Bree, they got married in March, they're having a little baby girl," the proud grandfather gushed. 

"That's not Dicky, that's Granddaddy Pappa Bear to you!"

"I just wanted to share that. Our little family is very excited," he added. 

Nick and Bree got married earlier this year in an outdoor wedding surrounded by family and friends. 

Wilkins shared a photo of the beautiful wedding with the caption: "Hearty congratulations to my magnificent son Nick and his wife Bree... what a wonderful day! #Soproud #Familyiseverything."

The entertainment editor has always been proud of how big his family is, with five kids: Adam, 50, Rebecca, 40, Nick, 39, Christian, 28, and Estella, 19. 

His daughter Rebecca is a mum of two. 

In a previous interview with 9Honey Parenting, the 69-year-old shared that: "Seeing everybody happy and together is my great joy. 

"Oh, I just love it when we're all together. I love them interacting with each other."
