Something to tell us, Katherine?!

“It was totally unexpected but thrilling nonetheless,” she confessed.

It will be the couple’s third child, but their first boy, and first biological child.

The 37-year-old says that daughters Naleigh and Adalaide can’t wait to be big sisters.

“Naleigh and Adalaide are over the moon and cannot wait to spoil their new sibling rotten,” the former Grey’s Anatomy actress said.

“And of course Josh and I are full of high hopes and bubbling anticipation.”

She continued: “The whole pregnancy thing is new to me but the thrill of having a baby is not.

“Seeing as I have never been pregnant and as my OB/GYN reminded me last year, I’m of advanced maternal age, I wasn’t sure pregnancy was even in the cards for us. Turns out it was very much in the cards!”

The actress, who has a reputation as a bit of a handful on set, is looking forward to giving birth but says she’s impatient.

“We’re so excited people!!! What an awesome journey!!!” he captioned a screenshot of a story announcing the pregnancy. “Can’t wait to hold this little nugget.”
