SINGER MONICA CONFESSES SHE'S FIVE MONTHS PREGNANT

Congrats are in order for singer Monica and her hubby Shannon Brown!
Last night, ahead of a show in Chattanooga, TN, Monica finally confirmed one of the worst-kept secrets among her fans this year.  She’s expecting!

She made the announcement on Instagram by tweeting photos of her very pregnant belly and retweeting her hubby, who posted “Hallelujah!!! Thank God!!! Thank you Jesus!!! I’m so Blessed!!” She also confirmed that she is five months and counting in a tweet to Niecy Nash.

Back in April, after her fans began pressing her about whether or not she was pregnant, she responded on Instagram:

I never made an announcement about anything. It’s just not who I am. Nothings a secret with me, I just simply feel that with me, what you see is what you get. I’ve never felt the obvious needed an explanation, but I know people report a lot of stuff daily artists don’t say themselves.

Congrats to the happy couple! Monica and Shannon have three boys between the two of them–will their first child together be a little girl?
