Megan Fox's dad has revealed that she's expecting a son

It'll be the third baby boy from the star.

Megan Fox revealed that she’s pregnant with her third baby back in April - and now a family member has confirmed that it's a third son for the star.

Megan's dad Franklin let slip the news of the child's gender, telling the Daily Mail, 'Megan is an amazing mum and I can't believe she is going to have three boys. Becoming a grandfather has been a wonderful experience and brought us even close together.'

The actress, who already has two children, Noah, 3, and Bodhi, 2, confirmed the news that she was expecting to PEOPLE magazine earlier this year, revealing her tiny bump to fans on the red carpet at CinemaCon in Las Vegas. Wearing a tight black dress you could clearly see the outline of her growing stomach.

At the time of the announcement, Megan and her ex-husband Brian Austin Green has separated, but it has since been confirmed that he is the father and the pair have called off their impending divorce.

The couple filed in August last year after five years of marriage but had been regularly spotted on outings with their children since, sparking rumours that they could be reuniting.

Franklin added, 'All I can say it that they are together and they are happy. I've met Brian a ton of times now, and he is a great guy.'

Speaking to Men’s Health in 2014 about marriage Megan revealed that her and her then husband experienced marriage troubles just like any other couple: 'You can't live in a fantasyland and think that everything's going to be perfect all the time. You will go through phases where you're just not getting along,’ she said.

'You're not communicating well,’ Megan continued, before adding: ‘That's going to happen, and it's going to feel impossible to you sometimes. It might not even make sense to you sometimes. Arguments are normal.'

The Hollywood star added: 'You have to be patient and sit through that and remember that this is a part of human communication and interaction…Brian is my soul mate. I happen to believe that. He's definitely meant to be the father of my children. That makes it easier for me to work through things, because I always see the spiritual side of things. I look at the end game.'

Proud mum Megan often posts pictures of her two little ones on Instagram, recenelty sharing a sweet snap of Son Bodhi with the caption, ‘Bodhi: Stunner. Clown. Unicorn.’
