McIntyre "blessed" to become a dad again

Joey McIntyre and his wife Barrett are expecting their second child.

The New Kids On The Block singer told People that the couple, who already have 20-month-old son Griffin, will welcome another boy in December.

He said: "I still can't get over it. We feel so blessed. My wife actually took the [pregnancy] test but she thought it was negative.

"She came out and gave me this look like, 'No'. Then she showed me the test and I said 'It's positive! What the hell?'"

While on tour with the reunited boyband, the 36-year-old revealed that he and his fellow New Kids collected and distributed new children’s books for impoverished youngsters in various cities.

It was recently announced that the group cancelled the Australian leg of their tour due to the economic slump.
