Beyonce Knowles is reportedly expecting her first child with new husband Jay-Z.

The 'Destiny’s Child’ singer – who tied the knot with the hip-hop mogul last Friday (04.04.08) – was spotted in New York sporting what appeared to be a baby bump yesterday.

A source close to the couple told America’s OK! magazine: 'I've heard from at least two people that Beyonce is pregnant.' Following the couple’s ceremony, actress Vivica A.

Fox revealed it wouldn’t be long before they started a family, adding: 'I wish them many, many years of happiness and some babies.

I think she will be really pretty pregnant, just like Jennifer Lopez and Halle Berry.' Beyonce and Jay-Z have yet to confirm their nuptials, and the 26-year-old singer is doing everything she can to keep people guessing.

As she left Jay-Z’s New York apartment yesterday, she wore a black leather ensemble which included black fingerless gloves – covering up any possible wedding ring she may have been wearing.                                                                     

Last year, Beyonce insisted she wouldn’t pressurise 38-year-old Jay-Z into having children, saying: 'You can't rush a man into anything whether it's a relationship, marriage or having children. When he's ready he'll let you know.' // Newsdesk
