According to online reports, singer Mariah Carey and her husband Nick Cannon are expecting.

The news comes by way of RadarOnline:

“The 40-year-old pop diva recently dropped out of her next film gig — a role in Tyler Perry’s For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Suicide When the Rainbow Is Enuf — fueling rumors that she’s pregnant.

Now a source close to Mariah and husband Nick Cannon tells RadarOnline.com the couple — who renewed their vows to celebrate their second anniversary in May — are expecting their first child.

“They’re both very excited and very happy,” dished our insider.

When contacted, Mariah’s longtime rep Cindi Berger gave RadarOnline.com a rather cryptic comment.

“I’m not at liberty to discuss Mariah’s personal life at this time,” the publicist told RadarOnline.com, a statement that did not outwardly deny the pregnancy.”
