LOS ANGELES, Calif. --

Funnyman Jim Carrey is going to be a grandfather.

Jane Carrey, the 21-year-old daughter of the “Yes Man” star, is pregnant, a rep for Jim confirmed to Access Hollywood.

“I am very excited,” Jim told Radar Online, which first reported the news. “Jane is going to be a great mom.”

The dad is Jane’s long-time love Alex Santana, Radar Online reported.

Jane is Jim’s daughter from his first marriage to Melissa Carrey. The couple divorced in 1995 after nearly a decade of marriage.

Jane, who fronts the Jane Carey Band, a Los Angeles-based group, and her father are close. She steps out regularly to support her father and his girlfriend, Jenny McCarthy, at autism fundraisers and events.
