Baby on Board for Bernie Ecclestone and Fabiana Flosi! The British businessman and Brazil native are expecting their first child, a baby boy, together. The due date of the baby is this summer.

On becoming a father again, the former Formula One Group chief executive, 89, shared his thoughts to the U.K. news agency PA Media on Friday, April 3.

He told the publication,

I don’t see there’s any difference between being 89 and 29. You’ve got the same problems I suppose. It’s all right.

His representative told CNN that his daughter Tamara is "absolutely thrilled for them both."

The upcoming baby is his fourth child. He shares daughter Deborah, 64, with ex-wife Ivy Bamford and daughters Tamara, 35, and Petra, 31, with his ex-wife Slavica Ecclestone with who he had been married for 24 years.

Bernie and Flosi, who is a  marketing director, met at the World Motor Sport Council in 2009, the same year he and Slavica, got a divorce.

The couple announced their engagement in April 2012. In August of the same year, they tied the knot in a resort of Gstaad, Switzerland.
