Shakira announced that she and her longtime love, soccer player Gerard Piqué, are expecting their second child on Thursday.

Shakira has previously expressed her desire to have more children, saying, “I would love to have eight or nine kids with Gerard – my own futbol team.”

Shakira just wrapped up her second season as a coach on NBC’s The Voice, but is taking this season off, which is perhaps for the best considering fellow coach Blake Shelton’s reputation of drinking during filming.

Filming more of The Voice today. Drunk..
