Jesse Tyler Ferguson and husband Justin Mikita are set to welcome their second child together.

The Modern Family star confirmed their happy news on Instagram, in a heartfelt video.

‘There’s a lot of really horrible stuff happening in the country right now that Justin and I wanted to share a little bit of good news with you,’ he began.

‘We are expanding our family, Beckett is going to be a sibling this fall!

‘In honor of our growing nest, we are very excited to partner up with Mili Mili, we’ve created a limited edition of products with them – crib sheets and sleep sacks. All of the proceeds from those products go to our LGBTQ organization, Pronoun.

‘But in response to what is happening in the world today and right now, we wanted to start off by making a $25,000 donation to the NAF hotline, a $25,000 donation to the ACLU and a $25,000 donation to Everytown Gun Safety.

‘We are very excited to have a little one on the way, but we are also so proud to support that choice to do it.’
