Chad Michael Murray's new wife Sarah Roemer is pregnant.

The 33-year-old actor has confirmed he recently tied the knot with his 'Chosen' co-star, 30, and he "can't wait" to welcome their first child into the world.

The heartthrob admitted he kept his wedding a secret because he is a "romantic."

He also told E! News: "I tend to keep everything quiet. I love my life. That's the part that I keep for myself."

Chad also can't wait to experience fatherhood.

He said: "I'm a family guy. I want that core.

"I can't wait. I think that's the number one priority in my life. I'm so blessed."

A spokesperson for the star also said: "Chad and Sarah are extremely happy and excited, and enjoying their life together.

"We please ask that their privacy be respected at this special and personal time."

Chad, who was previously married his 'One Tree Hill' co-star Sophia Bush until 2006, first sparked wedding rumours when he was photographed wearing a band on his left ring finger at a party in Los Angeles last Thursday (15.01.15).

The couple started dating last August following the actor's split from his 'Left Behind' co-star Nicky Whelan in May 2014.
