Pete Doherty is reportedly gearing up to become a dad for the third time after announcing wife Katia de Vidas’s pregnancy during a gig.
The 43-year-old singer is said to have shared the news during a performance in Strasbourg on Monday night.
Pete and Katia have been in a relationship with each other since 2012.
The star tied the knot with the musician that plays in his band two days after confirming their engagement in a private ceremony at a French retreat in September 2021.
News of a pregnancy for Pete was confirmed during the French gig earlier this week despite no reaction from either party on social media.
A source told the MailOnline: ‘They were happily talking about the news with fans after the show who waited behind to speak to them.’

The happy couple chose the Domaine Saint Clair hotel in the French city of Etretat to play host to their sudden wedding.
The Libertines and the couple’s band Puta Madres provided music in the city that has been their home for the last three years.
Ditching his notorious party lifestyle, the artist has been clean of heroin for three and a half years and settled down in France following his entanglement with the Puta Madres bandmate.
Pete rose to fame as indie band The Libertines frontman in the mid-noughties and found worldwide recognition after news of his relationship with supermodel Kate Moss broke.

The pair met in January 2005 at her 31st birthday party, shortly after which he declared that he had really fallen in love with the blonde beauty.
During their whirlwind romance, Pete failed to complete a rehab stint in Arizona, USA, and brought about an end to their relationship after Kate admitted she had personal issues to attend to.
The split quickly became nasty and in 2005 the singer drew a portrait of himself and Kate using crayons and his own blood.
In a tide of outbursts, Pete infamously etched ‘I love Kate 4 eva’ on the windscreen of his Jaguar after leaving court.
Following the pleas for a reunion, he and Kate eventually reunited and attended rehab together before they finally calling it quits in July 2007 despite announcing an engagement.
