"Yes, it's true," Wolff, 44, confirmed in Austin.
"My wife Susie is pregnant and we are expecting our baby in April. Whether it is a boy or a girl, the main thing is that it is healthy."
Scot Susie Wolff, 33, is now an expert pundit for Channel 4, but she has missed races recently and according to the newspaper she will also be absent in Austin and Mexico.
