Michael Clifford of 5SOS Is Going to Be a Dad and Fans Feel Old as Hell
Michael Clifford is officially going to be a dad, and 5 Seconds of Summer fans feel super old now.
The 5SOS guitarist and his wife, Crystal Leigh, announced the happy news on Instagram Monday (June 12) alongside adorable photos showing off both Leigh's baby bump and their ultrasound pics.
"You’re already everything," Clifford wrote in his Instagram caption.
The baby is due November 11.
Fellow musicians as well as Clifford's bandmates celebrated the news in the comments section.
"Aw yeahhhhhh," Matthew Koma commented.
5SOS bassist Calum Hood shared the post on his own Instagram Story, writing, "A big congrats to the soon-to-be parents."
"I'm filled with excitement and also with nerves. I've been a dog dad for a long time, so I think I'm ready for a small human to take care of and communicate with conversationally after eight years of one-sided dog convos!" Clifford told People about his and Leigh's baby news.
"It really has changed my outlook on life, though. The fact that for every single human on the planet (including everyone reading this), a strong woman had to go through carrying a baby, going through all of the emotions that come with being pregnant, and then deliver the baby is just astounding," he added.
