LOS ANGELES, Calif. --

Usher and his wife, Tameka Foster, are expecting their second child, the R&B sensation confirmed to Access Hollywood on Wednesday night.

Reports of a second child had been rumored, however, the singer had yet to confirm until now.

“Definitively. We’re actually expecting, if you didn’t hear, in December” Usher told Access backstage at his concert at LA’s Club Nokia on Wednesday. “One of the best Christmas gifts there is to have!”

Usher, 30, and Tameka welcomed their first child together – Usher Raymond V — back in November 2007. Tameka, 38, has three children from a previous relationship.

Later, in an interview on Thursday with Stevie Wonder for Stevie’s KJLH-FM morning radio show, Usher let the cat out of the bag that he and his wife are having a boy. In addition, Usher revealed Tameka’s due date is December 15.

Usher and Tameka wed in a large, glitzy ceremony in September 2007, after exchanging vows a few weeks earlier in a private civil ceremony.

In his interview with Access, Usher said they still haven’t decided on a name.

“There are a few names,” he added. “But if you guys have any unique one, please feel free to hit me up. Let me know.”
