Wilmer Valderrama to become a dad!

Wilmer Valderrama is set to become a father for the first time.

The 40-year-old actor and his fiancée Amanda Pacheco have confirmed they are set to welcome their first child into the world next year, almost exactly a year after they got engaged.

Wilmer posted on Instagram on Monday (21.12.20) to confirm the good news, as he shared a series of professionally shot pictures of himself and Amanda with the beauty’s baby bump on display.

He captioned the snaps: “#ItsJustUs3Now (sic)”

The ‘NCIS’ actor and Amanda got engaged on New Year’s Day (01.01.20) this year after just nine months of dating.

Alongside a snap of him proposing on a rock in the sea in San Diego, Wilmer wrote on Instagram at the time: "It's just us now 01-01-2020 (sic)"

The loved-up pair were first seen together on a shopping trip in Los Angeles in April 2019.

A source said at the time: "He definitely wants to make sure she feels taken care of.

"Even if they are just doing simple things, they have a lot of fun and are always smiling.”

Prior to dating Amanda, Wilmer was in a high-profile relationship with Demi Lovato for six years until 2016, and sources previously said the ‘Anyone’ singer was “happy" her ex beau has found his “life partner”.

Another source said: "She's happy for Wilmer if he's happy. "She always wants the best for him in life and is glad he has found love. They will always be friends and have a special place in each other's hearts.

"But she also realised he wasn't going to be her life partner and she's known that for a while. She moved on from that and has been going in a different direction. She wishes him all the best though.”

As well as dating 'Confident' hitmaker Demi, the former 'That '70s Show' star was previously in a relationship with actress-and-singer Mandy Moore between 2000 and 2002.
