Prince Charles and the Duchess of Cornwall are to become grandparents.
Tom Parker Bowles, Camilla's son, confirmed to the Mail on Sunday newspaper that he and fashion journalist wife Sarah Buys are expecting their first child.
"We have told our friends and family and they are all delighted," he said.
"Mummy is absolutely over the moon at the prospect of being a grandmother."
Sarah, 34, who is reportedly three months pregnant, added: "It is the best news ever and we are thrilled."
Tom, 32, is a columnist for the newspaper's Live magazine.
He told the newspaper: "Sara is going for another scan next week and we're hoping everything will be fine.
"I'm very excited and honestly don't mind if it's a boy or a girl, as long as the baby is healthy."
Camilla, 59, postponed engagements and has been convalescing after a recent hysterectomy operation.
