THIS POST CONTAINS SPOILERS, DO NOT READ ANY FARTHER IF YOU DO NOT WANT TO BE SPOILED!!!

We thought we couldn’t be more excited about brand new Vampire Diaries spinoff The Originals, and then we were lucky enough to catch up with the cast at San Diego’s Comic-Con and they were so wonderful that suddenly the wait for October became even more dreadful.

Luckily, in the short time us reporter types got to spend with the cast, we managed to squeeze out a few teasers to tide us over. Take Joseph Morgan – Klaus! – who spoke to us about what we can expect from that pesky hybrid baby Hayley (Phoebe Tonkin) is currently gestating…

Joseph heard about the baby early… and still didn’t realize Klaus was the daddy

I think it’s fair to say that we were all very surprised when we heard that Klaus had somehow managed to father a child… and Joseph was too (“It’s a turn up for the books, isn’t it?”) He told us that even though he’d heard there would be a baby, he didn’t quite put the pieces together.

“I didn’t see it coming,” he confessed. “I found out there was going to be a baby in The Originals – I found out earlier than [exec] Julie [Plec] would have liked me to, I think. I’m not going to get anyone in trouble, but someone slipped up and told me. They thought I knew. But for some reason I didn’t put it together that it was Klaus’s baby.”

What, even though we all saw Klaus and Hayley going at it on The Vampire Diaries? Yep, that’s right! “I knew it was Hayley who was having this baby, and it was just after we filmed the episode where we, you know, get it on, have a liaison,” Joseph joked. “And still I didn’t put it together! I was like, ‘There’s going to be this child and it’s Hayley’s, and we’re going to be warring over this child, I think, or something, and it’s going to be really cool’.

“Then I read the episode and I was like, ‘I’m the father?’ And then just like, ‘How did I not see that coming? Why didn’t I put it together?’ So it’s exciting.” We feel a bit better about our jaws dropping now.
