Leona Lewis has confirmed her pregnancy.
The “Bleeding Love” hitmaker was reported to be expecting her first child with husband Dennis Jauch over the weekend and she’s now shared a photo of her growing bump and revealed her baby is due this summer.
Leona took to Instagram to share a studio photo of herself in a tight-fitting black dress taken by celebrity photographer Rahul Bhatt and captioned her post: “Can’t wait to meet you in the Summer (heart emoji).” (sic)
It was previously claimed Leona and Dennis were “absolutely over the moon” to be parents.
A source said: “Leona and Dennis are absolutely over the moon.
“They have passed the 12-week milestone and told their family and friends at the beginning of the year.
“They can’t wait to welcome their new arrival and to become a family of three.”
The former “X Factor” winner and German-born choreographer and creative director Dennis – whom she wed in July 2019 after a decade together – have been keen to start a family for a while and had even considered adoption.
Speaking in 2020, Leona said: “I do want children, but Dennis and I have also talked about adopting.
“My mum grew up in a children’s home. No one adopted her as a child, and I would very much like to adopt.
“But I’m still figuring things out. If it was up to my husband, we would have had kids yesterday.”
Leona previously hailed her wedding – a vegan Buddhist celebration held at Sting's Tuscany estate – as the “most beautiful day”.
She said: “It was just the most beautiful day, full of love. It was so special to be able to bring together everyone we love. There were a lot of tears.
“The room already had so much good energy and having all the love in there was really powerful.”
