5SOS’s Michael Clifford, Wife Crystal Leigh Expecting First Child

5 Seconds of Summer‘s Michael Clifford and his wife Crystal Leigh have revealed that they are expecting their first child together.

The lead guitarist of the pop rock band and the talent manager began dating in 2016 and were married five years later.

The couple shared the news with People on Monday.

“I’m filled with excitement and also with nerves. I’ve been a dog dad for a long time, so I think I’m ready for a small human to take care of and communicate with conversationally after eight years of one-sided dog convos,” said Clifford.

“I’m over the moon!!” said Leigh. “Completely overflowing with joy, I have never been this happy in my entire life. I’d like to think it’s the baby’s good vibes and energy radiating through me, but it’s probably just the hormones.”

She added, “We have friends who have had incredibly difficult pregnancies, so I was prepared for the worst. But so far, it’s actually been pretty great and I feel very fortunate and high with happiness!!”

People published several photos of the couple, including one that shows Clifford holding Leigh’s baby bump.
