Lin-Manuel Miranda and wife Vanessa Nadal expecting baby number 2 in 2018

Grammy and Tony Awards winner Lin-Manuel Miranda is expecting baby number two with his wife and scientist Vanessa Nadal. Nadal showed everyone at the 2017 London Evening Standard Theatre Awards her baby bump as she and her spouse walked the red carpet.

Miranda and Nadal confirmed the news with several entertainment publications as they walked down the red carper last Sunday. Miranda also replied to one of his fans who asked if the news about them expecting a new baby is true. Miranda tweeted back to the fan with, "Oh Hell Yeah." More fans then started congratulating the couple and wishing them good luck on their new adventure.

The couple have not released any information if they are having a boy or a girl and on when is Nadal due. There are also no updates on any baby names they want. In 2018, Sebastian Miranda will be welcoming his little sister or little brother. Miranda and Nadal's first child is already three years old.

During an interview with Entertainment Tonight back in 2016, Miranda said that it was a "life-changing" experience for any person to find out that they are having a baby. Miranda also shared that the day he found out about his baby is the same day he got the call from Disney to produce songs from the animated film "Moana."

The Hamilton creator and star will surely have his hands full with his participation in the upcoming Disney film "Mary Poppins Returns." Miranda will portray the role of Jack, and with him is the Golden Globe awards winner Emily Blunt who will bring Mary Poppins to life.

"Mary Poppins Returns" will be Miranda's first movie as an actor. He also contributed to Disney's 2015 epic space film "Star Wars: The Force Awakens."

Miranda was recently involved in the American film "Speech & Debate" with young stars Liam James, Sarah Steele, and Austin McKenzie.
