Southern songstress Jessica Simpson is finally pregnant. The 31-year-old says she is enjoying her pregnancy and is letting us know all about her path to motherhood.
Jessica Simpson is reportedly expecting a baby girl.
The singer-and-actress - who is engaged to former NFL star Eric Johnson - is pregnant with the couple's first child and was thrilled when doctors revealed she is having a daughter.
A source told In Touch Weekly magazine: 'She's telling people it's like winning the lottery, twice. Jessica really wanted to find out the baby's sex, she hates surprises.
She and Eric are both so happy.'
The couple - who are set to wed next month in Hawaii - are currently painting the baby's nursery pink and friends claim they are already considering the names Morgan and Karen.

She said: 'Obviously I'm looking forward to having more grandkids. Bronx is the love of my life. I don't mind boys or girls, I'll take anything I get. I'm not picky!'
