LONDON (AP) - "Harry Potter" author J.K. Rowling said Saturday she is expecting her third child. Rowling, 38, made the announcement on her official Web site.
"I am really delighted to say that I am expecting a third baby, who is due next year," she said. "I always wanted three children, so I could not be happier."
Rowling's son, David, was born last year following her marriage to Neil Murray in 2001. She has a daughter, Jessica, from a previous marriage to Jorges Arantes.
The author reassured fans that the pregnancy would not affect the release of the next book in the Potter installment, which will be titled, "Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince."
"Let me reassure you that book six remains well on track and, fingers crossed of course, I don't foresee any baby-related interruptions or delays," Rowling said.
"I still can't say for sure when it will be finished, but I have written a lot and I really like it."
