YouTuber Felix Kjellberg aka PewDiePie made an announcement on his Instagram account and YouTube channel that he and his wife, Marzia will be expecting their first baby.

PewDiePie – who was previously the most subscribed individual on YouTube before MrBeast took the crown in November – married fellow (now former) content creator Marzia Kjellberg (née Bisognin) in late 2019. The pair moved to Japan last year, where they currently live with their two pugs, Edgar and Momo.

“I’ve been keeping a secret from you guys, and that is I’m going to be a dad. We found out that Marzia is pregnant first in November, and I’m just so thankful everything’s been going so well so far. I’m so excited. It’s kind of strange to me, it’s entering new territory, but I feel really ready, and so does Marzia.”

Marzia in her own post on Instagram, wrote, “Your dad and I can’t wait to meet you”, including visuals of the baby scans, the couple’s trip to a strawberry farm, and her bump.
