Fergie announces pregnancy

February 19, 2013

Fergie is pregnant.

The Black Eyed Peas singer – whose real name is Stacy Ferguson – took to her Twitter to reveal that she and husband Josh Duhamel are expecting a baby together.

"Josh & Me & BABY makes three!!!! #mylovelybabybump (sic)," she tweeted, tweaking the lyrics to hit Peas single My Humps.

This will be the first child for the couple, who tied the knot in 2009 after five years of dating.

The 37-year-old singer recently revealed that she and her Transformers actor husband were enjoying trying to get pregnant. 

She said:  "We’ll be happy when it happens. It’s not really in our hands but trying is great for our relationship."

The couple have regularly fielded questions about their plans to start a family, and in early February, Fergie sparked a fresh round of rumours after she was spotted on a supermarket run in looser-than-usual clothes.
