Singer Mariah Carey and her husband Nick Cannon are reportedly expecting their first child. The happy married life seems to be taking its toll on Mariah since she has been gaining a lot of weight and she was recently spotted with what can be defined as a bulging baby bump (photos below).

The 39 year-old singer told InTouch, “I love where I am in life right now,” and confessed she wants to start a family soon. A source reveals Mariah and Nick have been trying to get pregnant for a year now but that Mariah wants to wait until a little further along to make the official announcement.

A photo of newlyweds Mariah Carey and Nick ‘I Won the Lottery’ Cannon from their surprise wedding in the Caribbean is on the cover of this week’s People magazine.

Nick Cannon’s relative Linda Cannon has confirmed to E! News that Nick has in fact wed Mariah Carey, who is quite possibly the biggest diva of all-time. The wedding supposedly took place in the Bahamas where Carey owns a home.

Family member Linda Cannon has confirmed to E! News that the couple are, in fact, married.

“Yes, we know,” she says. “He called us and told us all about it. We are happy for him. If that is what he wants then we are happy for him.”

Linda Cannon wouldn’t confirm an earlier report that had the impromptu nuptials taking place yesterday at Carey’s new home in the Bahamas, only that Nick and his platinum-selling girlfriend have made it official.

Congrats to Nick and Mariah and Nick’s fame seeking relative. Now that a secretive marriage has taken place can we expect a pregnancy announcement?

Cannon’s prior flame was Victoria’s Secret model Selita Eubanks.
