Russell Wilson and singer Ciara will soon welcome their second child together, but they still don't know if the Seattle Seahawks quarterback will be there to witness the birth.

In an interview with Joel McHale on Tuesday's episode of "Jimmy Kimmel Live", Wilson acknowledged that the COVID-19 pandemic could prevent him from joining Ciara in the delivery room.

"That's what we don't know. That's kind of the crazy part of it," Wilson said. "I hope so. Obviously COVID's been such a crazy thing right now and the pandemic and everything else."

He added, "I think she needs me in the hospital room. Last time she grabbed my hand, she almost broke my hand. She was squeezing my right hand, I said 'Baby, baby, baby - other hand, other hand.' So she grabbed my left."

Wilson revealed in April that he and Ciara are expecting a boy. The couple are also parents to 3-year-old daughter Sienna Princess and 6-year-old son Future Zahir, whom Ciara shares with her ex, Future.
