Over the weekend, news surfaced online that rapper, actress and TV host, Queen Latifah is expecting her first child with her longtime girlfriend Eboni Nichols.

Now, Eboni Nichols was spotted out this week with a baby bump and possibly an engagement ring, confirming rumors of the couple expecting their first child together.

Sources at Radar claim the pair are also engaged to be married.

This follows an emotionally rough year for the proud Jersey girl, whose mother, Rita Owens, passed away this March due to heart disease.

Most recently, Latifah has been working with Michelle Obama to increase voter registration.
