And when asked whether he's looking forward to having time off so he can spend time with his future son or daughter, he replied: 'Yeah it's going to be really nice.'
Louis and his One Direction band-mates - Harry Styles, Liam Payne and Niall Horan - will wrap up their On The Road Again on 31 October in Sheffield, when Briana is expected to be around five months pregnant.

However, they have become close friends during her pregnancy, despite not being in a romantic relationship.
Following the initial news of Briana's pregnancy, Louis' mother Johannah met up with the expectant blonde and has been a good support to her.
Multiple reports have suggested Louis is looking for a home where Briana lives - she grew up in the LA suburb of Calabasas - the area made famous by the Kardashians.
During a live interview with Good Morning America last month, Louis said: 'Obviously it's a really exciting time, so I'm buzzing, thank you.'
