Michael Sheen announces his girlfriend is pregnant with his second child

Michael Sheen has announced that he is to become a father for a second time.

The Hollywood actor, 50, told his nearly 400,000 Twitter followers that his girlfriend Anna Lundberg, 25, is pregnant.

He said: "Very happy to let everyone know that my partner Anna and I are expecting a little angel of our own."

He also joking clarified that Lundberg was pregnant with a child - not the Antichrist - in a reference to his recent turn as an angel in Amazon Prime series Good Omens.

The series saw Sheen's character team up with a demon played by David Tennant to prevent the Antichrist triggering the end of the world.

Sheen also referenced the actress and model's nationality with a Swedish flag emoji, and added a Welsh flag to signify his upbringing in Port Talbot.

Sheen was previously in a relationship with actress Kate Beckinsale and the ex-couple have a daughter, Lily.

He also dated comedian Sarah Silverman for about four years, with the pair living in Los Angeles.
