Brian Prout of Diamond Rio and his wife Stephanie Bentley have announced that they are expecting a child.

The couple married last December and are very happy with the news. Said Brian: "We are very excited about yet another blessing that God has bestowed on us."

This will be the first child for the talented couple - Brian as you know is the drummer for Diamond Rio and Stephanie is the songwriter behind "Breathe," sung by Faith Hill -- perhaps he or she will continue in the family profession.

Congratulations, Brian and Stephanie on your new bundle of joy!
