Drew Barrymore is expecting her second baby and the actress is already beaming at the idea of expanding her family. And this time around, she's letting the world in on it.
Barrymore, 38, explained why she's finally going public about her new pregnancy after her rep confirmed to E! News exclusively on Monday that Barrymore is expecting baby No. 2.
"Last time I never commented on it and people just stalked me the entire time," Barrymore said. "So yes, it's happening, it's true. I tried to keep it a secret for as long as possible."
"When I found out I was overjoyed. It always feels so surreal, it's incredible," she said. "[I'm feeling] incredible, that 'Here we go again' feeling. And blessed. Blessed!"
Barrymore has been open about her desire to have a big family.
"I was an only child, and it was lonely," she told InStyle magazine this summer. "Some people love it and thrive on the independence, but I want my kids to have other kids around. Maybe two kids so they can run around life together, roll their eyes at their parents together like Rusty and Audrey Griswold from "[National Lampoon's] Vacation." So however that's going to come about, it's gonna happen!"
The actress also wanted to be sure that Olive, whom she told Jay Leno was "smart" and chatty, to have a sibling close in age. When asked if she hoped to have a second child, she responded quickly.
