Bobby Brown expecting fifth child

Singer Bobby Brown is expecting his fifth child with girlfriend Alicia Etheridge, reports People.

It will be Brown's first baby with Etheridge, whom he has been romancing for two-and-a-half years.

"I'm really excited about my new addition to my family," said Brown, who turns 40 this week.

His attorney Phaedra Parks added: "We're excited because he's in a good place - he's sober and he's very happy. And I'm happy for Alicia and Bobby as well."

Brown has a 15-year-old daughter with his ex-wife Whitney Houston, two kids with ex-love Kim Ward and a son from his relationship with Melika Williams.
