Bobby Brown suffered a major tragedy last year with the death of his daughter Bobbi Kristina Brown. But out of that, comes wonderful baby news that he is going to be a father again. He and his wife, Alicia Etheredge, are expecting their third child together.

Brown’s attorney confirmed the good news to Us Weekly. There’s no word on how far long Etheredge is in her pregnancy.

The couple previously welcomed their second child, daughter Bodhi, last year on July 11. That same month Brown, who is the ex-husband of the late pop icon Whitney Houston, had to watch as his daughter died after being in a medically-induced coma for several months.

Brown previously credited his wife for keeping him strong during those difficult months and after his daughter’s death.

This will be Etheredge’s third child, along with the couple’s six-year-old son Cassius. However, this will be Brown's seventh child in total, who is also father to six-year-old Cassius, 25-year-old LaPrincia, 23-year-old Bobby Jr., and 29-year-old Landon.

In addition to being a father again, Bobby Brown will also become an author. The New Edition alum will release his memoir, My Prerogative, in June.

Congratulations to Brown and Etheredge on their new pregnancy.
