RTE Fair City star and online prankster Gerard Jordan<\/a> reveals he’s expecting his ninth child with his partner.<\/p>\n

The actor, known for his portrayal of Steo Nash on the RTE soap<\/a>, made the announcement on Instagram <\/a>earlier today.<\/p>\n

He shared a video of the sonogram and his wife’s bump – with the caption “baby number 9” before adding “You’d have to go for the 10”.<\/p>\n

The Dubliner and his partner, Jo, previously spoke of their desire to have a big family.<\/p>\n

The pair, who live in the Liberties in Dublin<\/a>, welcomed their eighth child, Halo, last year. The seven others are named Jasper, Hugo, River, Sage, Saint, Zen and Enzo.<\/p>\n

In an interview, Gerard revealed that he became a dad for the first time at 25.<\/p>\n

Gerard told The Irish Independent: \u201cI have always loved the idea of a full, lively house. The kind of place where there is always laughing or someone needing a snack or needing something.\u201d<\/p>\n
