Realizing he'd been silent too long, and the air was becoming awkward he spoke, his voice belying his surprise.
"Oh, ah... wow. Thats... that's great. Really." He blinked, and the question fell out before he could stop it. "Where is the dad to be? I'd like to congratulate him too."

It wasn't that he was upset about any of this to begin with, it just wasn't exactly what he expected to hear. Liam's dead, yes. Sky can come back if she behaves, maybe. But that the leader was expecting was almost a physical blow.
