Nielsen, now 55, has also revealed she started having IVF treatment 14 years ago in the hope of becoming pregnant.
Nielsen, who married Dessi in 2006, said: “It (is) his first baby and we are very much in love.
The model and actor Brigitte Nielsen has said she understands why people think she is too old to have a baby at 54, but highlighted that older fathers never receive the same criticism.
I also totally respect the fact that not everybody likes it and agrees with it, but it is my life.”
