Bryan Adams is going to be a father again.

The Canadian rocker and Alicia Grimaldi are expecting a second baby together. Adams revealed the news Thursday via Twitter: "Alicia's either eaten too much chocolate cake or we're expecting another baby... I think it's a baby..."

The couple already have a daughter named Mirabella Bunny Grimaldi-Adams. She was Adams' first child.

Adams opened up about being a father during a visit last month to CBSNews.com, describing it as one of the best days he's ever had. "There isn't anything I don't like about it [being a father]," he said.

When asked what it's like to be away from his daughter while on the road, Adams said, "If I go away for a while I can see that she's changed when I get back, but she loves her Papa. She's 18 months, and I can tell already we're getting along great."

The 53-year-old rocker has a U.S. tour lined up for December. He's also out with "Exposed," his first retrospective book of photographs, featuring his portraits of Amy Winehouse, Mick Jagger and Ben Kingsley.
