Spanish actors Penelope Cruz and Javier Bardem are expecting their second child, their publicists have confirmed.

No further details were available.

The news came out at the beginning of the month, but was officially confirmed nearly two weeks later.

Cruz gave birth to the couple's first child, son Leonardo Encinas Bardem, in Jan. 2011, six months after she and Bardem tied the knot.

The brunette beauty opened up to Vogue last year about how motherhood has truly changed her.

"From the first second, you feel so much love," she gushed in the magazine's June 2011 issue.

"It is a revolutionary experience. That's the best way I can describe it. It transforms you completely, in a second. Nature is very wise and gives you nine months to prepare, but in that moment, when you see that face, you are transformed forever."

Cruz's younger sister, Monica Cruz, also announced last month that she's expecting her first child via a sperm donor, meaning the two stunning sisters will be pregnant together.
