Janet Jackson is expecting.
On Wednesday, May 4, a source close to the singer revealed that Jackson and her husband, Wissam Al Mana, are expecting their first child together. The news comes just weeks after the iconic singer announced she was postponing her tour to start a family. “We’re in the second leg of the tour and there actually has been a sudden change,” Jackson explained in a video posted to Twitter on April 6. “I thought it was important that you be the first to know. My husband and I are planning our family, so I’m going to have to delay the tour.
“Please, if you could try and understand that it’s important that I do this now. I have to rest up, doctor’s orders. But I have not forgotten about you. I will continue the tour as soon as I possibly can.”
In 2012, Jakcosn secretly wed Al Mana, 41, but didn’t confirm the news until early 2013. This is the singer’s third marriage. Did we mention Jackson is also just two weeks shy of her 50th birthday? Now, we’re taking a look at other celebrity moms who gave birth in their 40s. Because getting a visit from the stork well after turning the big 4-0 is only natural in Tinseltown.
