It looks like Jessica Biel is going to be a mother and Justin Timberlake is going to be a father. After weeks, or better said months of speculations, there is finally widespread confirmation of the rumor that Jessica is pregnant with her first child.

American tabloid Us Weekly claims that the news is “confirmed” and quotes several of the actress' friends in saying that she's with child and that several outside “sources” have also confirmed the news separately.

Insiders confirm Jessica is pregnant and that she and her husband are overjoyed

One insider is quoted as saying, “Right now they are just enjoying the news for themselves. They just want a happy baby.”

The actor and the singer had been dating for five years on and off before they eventually got married in October 2012. Earlier this year, they celebrated 2 years of marriage and people were beginning to wonder when Jessica was going to get pregnant.

There were several rumors which claimed that Jessica and Justin were at odds over the pregnancy, claiming that they couldn't see eye to eye. Jessica was keen to have a baby, while Justin was still not ready, wanting to focus on his career. This was believed to cause friction within the couple and there was even talk of divorce back in February of this year.

It turns out that the couple finally managed to work out their issues and now they have a baby on the way to cement their relationship. Jessica has been sparking pregnancy rumors since September, when she was spotted with the tiniest baby bump while on holiday in Hawaii.

Later, as she joined her husband in Australia and New Zealand for his world tour, she again looked pregnant as some of the people in her entourage confirmed that she was getting morning sickness, which was odd because Jessica is the type of person who never gets sick.

This reignited the pregnancy rumors but the couple kept quiet on the matter. To this day, there is no confirmation that Jessica is with child. While it is customary to postpone the announcement until several months in the pregnancy have past, for Jessica that announcement is getting to be a bit later.

It is believed that Jessica will give birth in April next year

Friends are claiming that she's already 3 or 4 months along and is due to give birth sometime around April, when Kate Middleton is also scheduled to give birth to her second baby.

It is said that the couple is now clearing out their busy schedules in order to accommodate for the new baby. Jessica doesn't have any upcoming movie projects lined up, and Justin is getting ready to wrap up his latest tour. This will give the new parents the time to focus on their new family.
