Jackson, 50, announced in April that she was postponing her Unbreakable World Tour so that she and her husband, Wissam Al Mana, 41, a businessman from Qatar, could start a family.

"My husband and I are planning our family, so I'm gonna have to delay the tour please if you could try and understand that it's important that I do this now," she told fans in a video. "I have to rest up, doctor's orders, but I have not forgotten  about you. I will continue the tour as soon as I possibly can,"

Jackson kept it simple when telling People about her pregnancy,

"We thank God for our blessing," she said.
