South Korean actor Song Joong Ki is expecting his second child with his wife, Katy Louise Saunders. The actor confirmed the good news through his agency, HighZium Studio. Song Joong Ki welcomed his first child, a son, in June 2023. This time around, the Vincenzo star has refrained from sharing the gender of his second baby and his wife’s due date. Song Joong Ki was previously married to Song Hye Kyo.
In a statement to Star News, Song Joong Ki’s agency said, “Song Joong-ki and his wife are pregnant with their second child. It is difficult to confirm the timing of birth or the gender of the child as these are private matters.”
The news has left fans celebrating. Many took to X and send their love to the actor.
Song Joong Ki is extremely private about his personal life. However, when his first child was born last year, the actor shared a rare glimpse of the little one along with a note to fans. “I finally met my baby here in Rome, my wife’s hometown. He is a healthy son. I am so grateful that both the baby and mom are healthy and happy, and I am taking care of my family very happily,” he said, when he welcomed his child.
“I think this is the most precious gift that has come to my wife and I, whose biggest dream has been to have a happy family for the rest of our lives. I think this good day has come thanks to the support of many people. Thank you,” he added.
The actor met former British actress Katy Louise Saunders years after his divorce from Song Hye Kyo and fell in love. Song Joong Ki surprised fans in January last year by announcing his wedding to Katy and revealing that they are expecting their first baby together. “We naturally dreamed of creating a happy family together. We have put in much effort to keep each other’s promises, and we are sincerely thankful as a new life has come to us,” he said at the time.
Congratulations, Song Joong-ki!
