In other exciting baby news from the world of TV, it was revealed earlier this month that Vampire Diaries' Candice King is expecting her second child.

"I feel comfortable and confident enough to discuss it now," she explained on her podcast Directionally Challenged.

"I'm someone who likes to keep the pregnancy to myself and obviously with my partner – my husband (Joe King) – and our immediate friends and family until I feel comfortable and confident that I'm in a good place in my pregnancy and that my baby's okay and I'm okay as best as we can be.

"I'm finally at that place now, which feels really good."
