Iron Man star Robert Downey Jr has apparently been unable to contain his excitement over the newest addition to the Downey clan, the couple's second child together.

When the star received an award at the BAFTA's last week, he dedicated his triumph to his unborn baby girl: “It’s just the uncertainty of how nowadays you have all these things where you think you have much more of an understanding of what you’re going to get, and then this little soul lets herself be known to you, and it’s just like: You don’t know anything. It’s great!”

As usual, RDJ has kept the humour going while he celebrated the special time for his family.

He took to Twitter with the short and sweet "Yo. Susan. Me. Baby. Girl. November. Scorpio?" to announce the pregnancy, and continued to joke until the last minute, saying: “the second pregnancy has been extraordinarily tough for me. Self-prescribed mandatory bed rest was of some benefit. At least my milk is finally coming in.”

But joking aside, the now father-of-three admitted that there were some nerves when it came to raising his first daughter: "I've never had a daughter before, so I don't know what really prepares a dad. I'm asking around. But I did my part and now I'm just going to show up and do what I'm told."
