Singer and songwriter Gwen Stefani, whose 2004 album "Love. Angel. Music. Baby." proved to be a breakout solo hit, is pregnant with her second child with husband Gavin Rossdale, according to several news reports on Tuesday.

Celebrity Web site People.com quoted Douglas Rossdale, Gavin's father, as saying, "the whole family are delighted."

"We are very much looking forward to another grandchild," he said.

A Los Angeles-based spokesman for Stefani was not immediately available to comment.

Stefani, 38, and Rossdale, 40, who gained fame in British rock band Bush, have one other child, a son named Kingston who was born in 2006. Stefani and Rossdale were married in 2002.

California native Stefani rose to record stardom singing for the band No Doubt in the 1980s and 1990s. "Love. Angel. Music. Baby" was her first solo album. In 2006, she released another solo effort, "Sweet Escape."
