Usmagazine.com is reporting that R&B crooner Robin Thicke and his wife, actress Paula Patton, are expecting their first child.

“She could make a marriage work with a chair,” he told the magazine of Patton, 33. “She’s an incredible woman, and she’s very beautiful, so I’m just lucky to be with her.”

When the 32-year-old crooner was asked last year about the possibility of children in their future, he told People.com there is “a 100 percent chance …just not right now. We’re still little kids ourselves in some ways! I want a big family which means we’ll probably end up adopting.”
