Melissa Rycroft and her husband Tye Strickland are expecting their second child together! She confirmed the news this morning on Good Morning America.

The Bachelor star, 30, works as a correspondent for GMA after winning the ABC show (only to be dumped for the runner-up), and going Dancing With the Stars.

She’s due next spring. The baby-to-be will join sister Ava, Melissa Rycroft Strickland’s 2-year-old daughter. The couple tied the knot in December 2009.

Rycroft joked this year that Ava isn’t super-keen on the idea of having a little brother or sister. Guess she’ll have to rethink that whether she likes it or not!

"We’re getting close now [to having another child]," she said. "When we ask Ava [if she wants a sibling], she says she doesn’t want to share. She’s so spoiled!"

Congratulations to the whole family. Even you, Ava!
