One Direction Star to Become A Dad
He has already told his bandmates the news.
Louis Tomlinson is going to be a dad!
The boyband star and American Briana Jungwirth, both 23, are expecting a baby together.
Louis had been dating Briana two months after he broke up with his girlfriend, Eleanor Calder, after three and a half years together.
“Louis is happy and very excited about becoming a dad and he thinks Briana will be an amazing mother. It was a surprise at first, but he and Briana are very, very close friends and this has brought them even closer,” said a mutual friend of the pair. Tomlinson has vowed to be at Jungwirth’s side and to be a “hands-on dad” when the baby arrives early next year.
Briana is 11 weeks pregnant and Louis flew to the States to be there for her first scan. He also flew his family over to meet her.
Briana is meant to be a very private girl and not interested in Louis' fame. In fact she only just went to her first One Direction concert in San Diego recently.
Louis will have plenty of practice with the nappies as his mum, Johanna, gave birth to twin boys in 2014. Johanna is a midwife and is a great source of support for Briana. She is said to be very excited about the idea of being a grandmother.
The news of Louis' impending fatherhood comes at a turbulent time for the band after the departure of Zayn Malik in March.
