Benedict Cumberbatch and his fiancée Sophie Hunter have more news… they are going to be parents.

According to reports this morning the Sherlock star and his soon-to-be-wife are getting ready for the pitter patter of tiny feet.

A source told The New York Post: “Sophie is a few months along, and both she and Benedict are very excited about it. They are also quietly planning to marry in early spring.”

Pregnancy rumours started swirling this week when Sophie seemed to be trying to cover her stomach with her bag and a maxi dress at the Palm Springs International Film Festival.

The couple, who went public with their romance early last year, announced their engagement back in November.
