The singer revealed she's married and expecting her first child
The American Idol winner, who broke up with singer Jason Derulo in 2014, admitted: 'They were shocked, scared and terrified tears, I'm going to be completely honest. I was just like, "Oh my gosh!"'
The performer went on to add that she and her new husband are happier than ever and can't wait to meet their first child, saying: 'We're really proud to be married to each other and to be celebrating this.'
Talking about how she met her husband of four months, Jordin said: 'He came here to Los Angeles and we spent time together, we spent a couple of days together and it was something I'd never felt before.
'A couple days after we had actually met, I was like in my head 'That's going to be my husband! That's my husband right there. When I'm with him, I feel comfort and safety and calm and peace, and those aren't things that I normally felt. So it was a little wake-up call for me.'
Congratulations to the lovely couple!
