Orlando Bloom is excited to have a 'daddy's girl'

Orlando Bloom can't wait to have a "daddy's girl" of his own.

The 'Carnival Row' actor and his fiancee Katy Perry are due to welcome a daughter into the world in the coming weeks and the 43-year-old star - who also has nine-year-old son Flynn with ex-wife Miranda Kerr - is hoping they'll have a particularly special bond.

He gushed: "I'm so excited to have a little daddy's girl. I hope she's going to love me as much as I'm going to love her.

"That daddy-girl thing, you know, and that love of your life feeling is I think right around there, you know."

And Orlando admitted Flynn is "excited" to have a sister as he's only got two half-brothers, Miranda and her husband Evan Spiegel's sons Hart, two, and Myles, 10 months.

He told talk show host Jimmy Fallon: "He's got a couple of other brothers, but this is his first sister, so he's excited."
