The 31-year-old singer said Tuesday on Twitter
that she and husband Brandon Blackstock are expecting their
first child together.
The original "American Idol" champion says in her tweet that the
baby is the "best early Christmas present ever."
Clarkson's publicist, Mika El-Baz, later confirmed the
information.
Clarkson and Blackstock were married last month. Blackstock is
the son of Clarkson's manager, Narvel Blackstock, and the
stepson of Reba McEntire. He manages country star and close
Clarkson friend Blake Shelton.
Blackstock has two children from a previous marriage. No word on
when the baby is due.
