They announced their news days after their wedding.

Chance the Rapper has announced that he and his wife Kirsten Corley are expecting their second child together.

The pair, who tied the knot over the weekend, welcomed their daughter Kensli in 2015.

The 25-year-old rapper confirmed their happy news in an Instagram post on Thursday.

Adding a hint about his wife’s due date in the caption, he wrote alongside the post: “New baby droppin’ September.”

The couple got married on Saturday at the Resort at Pelican Hill in Newport Beach, California.

A few days before they got married, Chance took to Twitter to tell the story of how they first met.

He explained that when he was nine-years-old, his mom took his dad, his brother and him to an office party to get to know her co-workers. That’s where he first saw Kirsten, who was there performing a Destiny’s Child dance routine.

He said that it was love at first sight – although he was too nervous to introduce himself that night.

He added:

“I knew I was gonna marry that girl.

“Sixteen years later it’s happening. This wknd is the time, and the place is my wedding. I’m gonna dance with my wife because this is my destiny.”

The couple first started dating in 2013. After they welcomed Kensli in 2015, they split the following year. They reconciled again in 2017.

Chance proposed on July 4, 2018 at a family barbecue. He announced their news the same day on social media, telling his followers “She said yes.”
