You guys are amazing. I love you. Lucia, my baby girl who is not here with us, she stayed at home with Grandma, but she’s also the light of my life.”
In the same speech he also gave a shout out to his 8-month-old daughter Lucia, who is staying at her grandmother’s house. He added how she is the light of his life before making the big announcement.
“And by the way, I have to announce that we are pregnant. We are waiting,” he added. The announcement was met with cheers and applauses from the crowd as well as netizens online.
