Janet Jackson reportedly expecting first child with Qatari husband

When American singer Janet Jackson confirmed in 2013 that she had secretly married Qatar’s Wissam Al Mana, it had created a lot of media interest.

And now, the news coming out of the singer’s household is that she is expecting her first child from the union.

Entertainment Tonight reported that the singer, who will turn 50 on May 16, is pregnant. However, she has not publicly confirmed the same.

Another source, reportedly close to Janet, told Radar Online that, “Janet is healthy and she and Wissam are looking forward to becoming parents.”

Another website, E! News, reported that Janet had worked with a fertility expert to get pregnant and that she is now in her second trimester.

The singer who embarked on her year-long Unbreakable World Tour last August has missed shows due to medical reasons since October.

Last month, Janet had announced she was postponing her Unbreakable World Tour, her first in four years, to try and start a family with her husband.

On Christmas Eve, she announced a delay in her North American tour, saying that she needed an urgent operation, and gave no other clarification other than to deny rumors she had cancer.

She later called off a European tour and had been due to resume performances on May 14 in Las Vegas.

 Janet Jackson and Wissam secretly married in 2012, it being her third marriage.

At the time, she had dismissed reports of a lavish wedding.

"Last year we were married in a quiet, private and beautiful ceremony. Our wedding gifts to one another were contributions to our respective favourite children's charities."
