“They told friends in the last month,” a source close to the couple said recently. “She’s never been happier. Seriously, it’s all she’s been waiting for. And Jay is like an excited kid. They’re adorable.”

“I think she’ll be an incredible mother,” Rowland said at the House of Hype’s post-VMAs party at the SLS hotel. “She’s always been motherly. I think that takes after so many traits from her mother, Tina Knowles. I just think it’s going to be so natural for her. It’s natural for her now.”
Beyonce did not say when she is due to deliver or what the baby’s gender is.
