Last week, 68-year-old Billy confirmed his wife's pregnancy during an interview with the Belfast Times. The Piano Man singer revealed: "We are due next month." Speaking about his second daughter, the besotted dad added: "She sleeps through the night. I hope the next one will." Billy also revealed that his little girl so far isn't into watching television, but instead prefers to spend time outside. When asked if she was into Peppa Pig and Paw Patrol, he replied: "Not really. She is out all day long. So, she is not really watching a lot of TV. I’m sure she will soon enough!" Billy and Alexis tied the knot in a surprise ceremony on 4 July back in 2015, at the singer's Long Island estate. A month later, the couple welcomed baby Della.
