"I feel blessed, having a family is something that I've always wanted," he told People. "Having a second child is the realisation of a dream come true."

Ian and Erin don't know if they are having a boy or a girl yet. They have told Mia she will have a brother or sister next year, with the tot looking forward to the new arrival.

"We tell her baby' and point to Erin's belly," the 48-year-old star laughed. "Now she points to Erin's belly and says, Baby.'"
