Singer-songwriter Elle King and her fiancé, Dan Tooker, are expecting their first child together, multiple entertainment outlets are reporting.
According to People magazine and “Entertainment Tonight,” King, 31, shared the news Wednesday, calling the child a “miracle baby.”
“Well, we did something! Me and @tattooker made a little human!” she wrote in an Instagram post. “We are very excited to share the news that we are pregnant. This news comes with a great deal of fear, and I hope that all mothers-to-be, in whatever sense that may be, know that I am trying to be very sensitive. You see, this miracle baby comes after two very big losses. It’s a terrifying and extremely painful experience for everyone. But the sun always rises, and I never really let go to let the universe decide when I was ready. I remember every pregnancy announcement felt like a dagger to me. So I want to be very delicate and say to YOU! That soon to be mom, who’s maybe had a loss, or has been struggling with fertility, I’m telling you, our babies come. And I love you.”
She went on to praise women’s strength and thank fans for their support.
“What women go through on this journey make us nothing less than WARRIORS,” she wrote. “So thank you for your prayers and love for our high risk pregnancy!”
King and Tooker, a tattoo artist, got engaged last fall and learned of the pregnancy on Christmas Day, People reported.
