The actor and his wife Ryan Shawhughes are expecting their second child together. They already have a two-year-old daughter Clementine.

A source told Us Weekly magazine: "Ryan is five months along, totally showing."

The couple don`t yet know the sex of the baby but their little girl knows what type of sibling she wants.

Another source said: "They don`t know the gender, but Clementine really wants a little brother! She`s (Ryan`s) got an adorable little basketball belly!"

Ethan has two other children, Maya, 12, and nine-year-old Levon, from his marriage to actress Uma Thurman.

Ryan and the 40-year-old Hollywood star first met when she was working as a nanny to Maya and Levon, and they started dating in 2005, a year after he split from Uma.

Ethan has previously described his children as "the greatest pleasure" in his life.

He added: "It`s the only role that, if I fail, I will consider my life a failure."
