He said: "I am grateful to be able to live my dream every day and grateful to you for coming along for the ride.
"I don’t take any of it for granted and throughout it I’ve always tried to be as transparent as possible.
"I overshare and I expect everyone around me to do the same.
"Tonight, I want you to be the first to know that after many years of careful deliberation, a fair amount of prayers, and the benefit of science, if all goes according to plan in about six weeks time, I’m going to become a father.
"Thanks to a wonderful surrogate who is carrying my future."
Andy has wanted to become a parent his "entire life" and says becoming a father will be the "most rewarding chapter" in his life.
He concluded: "Family means everything to me and having one of my own I’ve wanted in my heart for my entire life and though it’s taking me longer than most to get there, I cannot wait for what I envision to be the most rewarding chapter of my life."
