Kim Basinger sent excitement levels through the roof when she announced some wonderful baby news following her daughter, Ireland Baldwin's surprise pregnancy announcement.
The 69-year-old took to Instagram on Thursday to reveal the sex of Ireland's first child, just days after her daughter announced that she is expecting with her musician boyfriend RAC. Ireland posted a sonogram image which she simply captioned: "Happy New Year" with a red heart emoji.

Unable to contain her glee over becoming a grandmother, Kim uploaded her own sonogram photo from her pregnancy with Ireland 27 years ago, before sharing that her daughter is expecting a baby girl.
Captioning the image, which also featured a handwritten note underneath, Kim wrote: "I know it's hard to read… But in April of 1995, this was a note I wrote on one of my first sonograms of baby Ireland.

"This will not be a mom blog or pregnancy account by any means. Not that there's anything wrong with that, but it won't be that, for me," she said in a video on her Stories.
Although she did add that "every now and then I will vent and say what I have to vent and have some comedic relief in this process".
