Benedict Cumberbatch and wife expecting baby no. 2

There’s another baby on the way for the Cumberbatch household

“Sherlock” star Benedict Cumberbatch and his wife, Sophie Hunter, are expecting their second child, the actor’s rep confirmed. “Everyone is absolutely thrilled,” Cumberbatch’s rep said in a statement.

Cumberbatch and Hunter attended the world premiere of his new Marvel superhero film, “Doctor Strange,” in Hollywood on Thursday, though Hunter showed no visible signs of being pregnant on the red carpet.

The couple, who tied the knot in 2015, also have a 13-month-old son, Christopher. 

Cumberbatch will return to television for more “Sherlock” starting early next year.
