Tom Welling has another little hero on the way!

The Smallville actor, 43, and wife Jessica Rose Lee are expecting their second baby, he revealed with help from his costar from the CW Superman series, Michael Rosenbaum. On Tuesday's episode of Rosenbaum's podcast Inside of You, he broke the happy news, getting Welling to confirm it, though the actor remained mostly mum about the subject.

"Welling shares a secret 🤫 don't miss this week's @insideofyoupodcast with the man himself @tomwelling," Rosenbaum teased on Instagram about the reveal, as Jessica shared the post on her Instagram Story and appeared to confirm the pregnancy news, writing simply "YES."

"What?" Welling jokingly responds, as the two then playfully pretend to have let a secret slip in the interview.
