Baby Alert! Which Country Cutie Is Expecting Her First Child?

Sunday may have been all about celebrating Fathers' Day, but here's a bit of mother-ly related news that has us all in a dither this week. Guess which gorgeous country newlywed is expecting her first child? It's Jennifer Nettles from Sugarland!

The 37-year-old singer, who's also a mentor on reality talent show Duets, is due in November, according to People. And yes, she's still technically a newlywed, having only been married to entrepreneur and former model Justin Miller for seven months. (In fact, the baby is actually due around the couple's first anniversary...how's that for a nice way to mark the occasion?){Photo: Donald Kravitz}

According to Nettles's manager, the pair are "thrilled beyond belief." Of course!

Nettles and Miller met in 2006 and dated for a few years before getting engaged. They were married Thanksgiving weekend in a small, sunset ceremony set in the foothills of Tennessee's Smoky Mountains.

Congratulations, Jennifer! Be sure to leave your well-wishes here, too!
