It is the most important job i will ever do," he wrote alongside a photo of a lion, a lioness and their cub.

It was Britney who first hinted towards a potential pregnancy.

“I lost so much weight to go on my Maui trip only to gain it back  … I thought ‘Geez … what happened to my stomach ???’” the singer wrote.

“My husband said ’No you’re food pregnant silly !!!’ So I got a pregnancy test … and uhhhhh well … I am having a baby .”

“It’s growing !!!” she continued. “If 2 are in there … I might just loose [sic] it," the 40-year-old hinted on twins.
