Alec Baldwin expecting first child with wife

New York: `30 Rock` star Alec Baldwin and wife Hilaria Baldwin have confirmed reports that they are expecting a baby.

The 54-year-old actor and Hilaria, 28, announced the news on television, reported Huffington Post. Speaking to a correspondent, yoga instructor Hilaria said, "We`re having a baby! It was a surprise, a wonderful surprise." "There`s a scream I heard, which is a scream normally reserved if there`s a spider in the house - not exaggerating. "Normally, I will be reading a book. We`re in the country, it`s quiet, some time to really relax and unwind and sometimes, once a month, you hear, `Ahhh, Alec, Alec!` I come upstairs, and there`s a spider on the wall. So then I hear that scream again, but it was not a spider," Alec said. It will be the first child for the couple, who wed last year. Alec is already father to 17-year-old daughter Ireland, from his marriage to Kim Basinger. PTI
