At least, according to some outlets! “Single Ladies” singer Beyoncé Knowles and her “Empire State of Mind” rapper husband Jay-Z are expecting their first child, US Weekly magazine reported on Wednesday.

According to the magazine, the 29-year-old R&B diva was surprised to learn she is in her first trimester of the pregnancy. She wanted to finish another album but was overjoyed, sources told the mag.

Beyoncé’s younger sister, Solange, who has a six-year-old child, said, “She’s got the most beautiful heart. She’ll be a great mom.”

As the one of music’s most influential and wealthy couple, Beyoncé and Jay-Z, 40, were married in a secretive ceremony in New York in 2008.

The rapper is set to release a memoir in November called “Decoded,” while Beyoncé earlier this year completed a world tour promoting her 2008 hit studio album, “I am…Sasha Fierce.”
