Coco and Ice-T expecting their first child

Ice-T and wife Coco have big news - the couple of 14 years are expecting their first child together.

Coco Austin, revealed that she is pregnant on Twitter Monday, saying: "I'm pregnant! Yah! Ice & I are so excited!"

Adding that she also revealed her news at a July 24 taping of the couple's new daytime talk show, "Ice and Coco," set to debut on Aug. 3.

Ice-T, who is 57, has two children already from previous relationships. Coco, 36, has been very vocal about her desire for kids, mentioning it on their past reality show, "Ice Loves Coco," on multiple occasions.

In 2012, Coco emotionally discussed her health issues on the former reality show, when a doctor reportedly tells her that she must deal with her elevated blood pressure before she could safely carry a baby. The reality star broke down in tears upon hearing this, but according to Us Weekly, she was determined to get her health under control, so that she could make her baby dreams a reality.

Well, at least we know they have one hot topic to cover on their new talk show which premieres on select Fox markets (including New York and Los Angeles) next month.
