It has seemed like Jennifer Nettles has been extra bubbly during her first season of ‘Duets’ on ABC. The Sugarland singer and reality television judge is close to five months pregnant! The band’s manager broke the news to People on Monday morning.

“They are thrilled beyond belief,” Gail Gellman said. Last November, Nettles married longtime boyfriend Justin Miller during a small, private ceremony in Tennessee. The new arrival — the first for both of them — should coincide with the couple’s first wedding anniversary.

The 37-year-old Nettles is always glowing on stage or in front of the camera, but this summer she’ll no doubt be extra smiley, in addition to being extra tired. The band has a solid wall of shows planned through early September. It’s impressive that Nettles has been able to keep this secret from fans and reporters during recent shows on the In Your Hands tour. Congratulations to the happy couple!
