Henry Cavill has revealed he is expecting his first child with girlfriend Natalie Viscuso.
The star, 40, confirmed the joyous news with Access Hollywood at the premiere of The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare on Monday.
‘I’m very excited about it. Natalie and I are very, very excited,’ he told the outlet.
Cavill and his girlfriend, 34, have been going strong for nearly three years now, with the Justice League star announcing their relationship in 2021 with a snap of them playing chess.
The couple made their red carpet debut at the premiere of Enola Holmes 2 in 2022.

Previously the actor said of fatherhood back in 2017: ‘If I ever have kids one day, I want to be the dad who’s running round after them,’ he told Men’s Health U.K.
‘And if I do have kids, even now, it’s starting to get quite late. But I want to be a fit and healthy dad, not hobbling round like, ‘OK, I’m just going to catch a breather.’
Natalie works in TV but had a brief taste of life in front of the camera as a teenager on the MTV hit My Super Sweet 16.
And MailOnline understands Natalie’s father Michael is a former nightclub mogul, which led to her appearance on the TV series that later became a global hit.
Now, the New Mexico-turned-California executive loves hanging out in the beautiful nature her new home has to offer alongside boyfriend Henry and their two dogs.
Natalie is the former Vice President of TV at Vertigo Entertainment but had a brief taste of life in front of the camera as a teenager on the MTV hit My Super Sweet 16.
A description of the episode read: ‘At 15 years old, Natalie is now living in a $5 million house and cruising around town in her dad’s Bentleys and Ferraris. What more could she want? How about being the most popular girl at school?’
During the episode, Natalie was described as hailing from ‘sleepy Roswell, New Mexico,’ but moved to La Jolla, California, with her father and his then-fiancé.

A source close to the couple previously told MailOnline Henry and Natalie met years ago after ‘crossing paths’ while working in the same industry but romance finally blossomed during lockdown.
‘Henry first connected with Natalie years ago, and while a romantic spark wasn’t instant between them, they always kept in touch’ an insider explained.
‘Despite strict travel restrictions in place, Natalie flew from the States to the UK so she could be with Henry, and they were able to go unnoticed from prying eyes in Berkshire as they visited local markets together.
‘As a hugely famous actor, Henry is usually very discreet about his personal life and relationships but he’s smitten with Natalie, who’s been a party girl and aspiring model from a young age, even starring in MTV hit My Super Sweet 16.’
