‘Welcome to the world Axel! 2/14/20’.

This is the second child for Melissa and David, who are already parents to three-year-old son Enzo.

The couple, who married 12 years ago, announced that they were expecting their second child not that long ago.

Taking to her Instagram page back in November with a snap of her growing baby bump, Melissa wrote, ‘Oh yeah, I’m hella pregnant.

To be honest, I haven’t felt like posting about it because this pregnancy has been way harder and... I don’t feel that cute?

‘But yesterday I got a really intense massage, an awesome chiropractic adjustment, and my hair feels thicker... so I feel a little bit cute today. ✌🏽🤓 #herewegoagain #babyboynumerodos’.

Big congrats to the whole family on their new arrival!
