Janet Jackson Nearly 50 and PREGNANT with Her First Child!

The iconic pop star, who will be turning 50 on May 16th, is expecting her first child with her husband of four years, Wissam Al Mana.

Jackson recently delayed her world tour to “focus on family” and now we finally know that she’s building one of her own! Michael’s sister explained on Twitter on April 6th:

We’re in the second leg of the tour and there actually has been a sudden change. 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.

Entertainment Tonight confirmed the news just days before Mother’s Day and we’re thrilled to hear that the couple are expecting.

Big congrats to Janet and Wissam!
