Watch Robbie Keane tell his son he's going to be a big brother

The announcement was made on Faceboook - with a video of his first son's reaction to the news.

Irish football legend Robbie Keane is due to become a father for the second time, after announcing his wife, Claudine, is pregnant.

The announcement was made on Facebook - with a video of his first son's reaction to the news.

Six-year-old Robert Junior met the news with the mix of complete confusion and delight that most kids have when faced with this kind of news - and it's heart-warming stuff.

"Very excited to announce that Claudine is pregnant with our second child. We are all delighted," Keane wrote in a Facebook post.

"Couldn't resist sharing Robert's reaction when he found out his wish had finally came through."

35-year-old Keane married model and columnist Claudine in 2008, and she gave birth to Robert Junior in 2009.

The pair live in California, where Robbie plays for LA Galaxy.
