Jesse Tyler Ferguson may be ending a professional chapter, but hes about to start a new and deeply personal one.

Appearing on The Late Late Show With James Corden Wednesday, the Modern Family star revealed that he and husband Justin Mikita are expecting a baby.

The news came as Ferguson, 44, was offering fellow Late Late Show guest Charlie Hunnam advice on turning 40. (Hunnams birthday is April 10.)

Its when you finally become an adult, I feel, Ferguson said. Like, I need to start getting serious about things. Actually, this is something I havent even mentioned to anyone, if we could just keep it between the three of us and you all, but Im actually expecting a baby in July with my husband.

The actor didnt reveal the babys sex, only jokingly confirming that it would be human.
