Jim Dowd, Donald Trump’s NBC spokesman, confirmed that the happy couple is expecting their little bundle of joy in the spring. No word yet on whether they are expecting a boy or a girl. Dowd said that Trump is "very excited" to become a father again and, "he’s loving it. He always said that he would like to have more of a family." The baby will be Knauss’ first child and Trump’s fifth. Trump has three kids with his first wife Ivana; Donald Jr., 27; Ivanka, 23; and Eric, 21. He has a daughter Tiffany, 11, with second wife Marla Maples.

Trump, 59, met the Slovenian model-actress six years ago. The couple tied the knot last January at Mar-a-Lago, Trump’s Palm Beach estate. The "star-studded" event included a 500-person guest list with such big names as Oprah Winfrey, Elton John, Britain’s Prince Charles, and David Letterman. At the time of their wedding, the Donald said, "Melania would like to have children. I’m up for it." Guess he wasn’t joking!

Trump is currently in the fourth season of NBC’s The Apprentice, which subsequently airs the day after The Apprentice: Martha Stewart. While Trump has his trademark "hand-jab" and "you’re fired," Stewart has "one of you will be asked to go home" and then writes the fired person a letter, wishes them "luck and safe travels," and signs it "Cordially, Martha Stewart." Obviously a different show, but the idea behind it is the same. Ultimately on each show one lucky winner will get the chance to work for the big wig for a period of one year.
