DESTINY FULFILLED? KELLY ROWLAND CONFRIMS PREGNANCY VIA INSTAGRAM

Kelly Rowland is fulfilling her destiny and  has the Internet abuzz with rumors that she’s expecting her first child. And it looks like Blue Ivy may soon have a playmate. The Destiny’s Child singer posted a photo of a pair of adult Nike Jordans next to a pair of baby Jordans with the caption, “I’ll be stuntin like my daddy…..”

She also tagged her husband Tim Witherspoon in the photo.

Kelly and Witherspoon, her manager and best friend, wed in a secret ceremony last month in Costa Rica.

Just last night, Kelly stepped out to the premiere of Think Like a Man Too wearing a loose-fitting top to possibly cover up her pregnant belly.

We can already tell that Kelly and Tim’s baby is going to be one of the best-dressed tots in Tinsel Town! In addition to the adorable Air Jordans the couple picked up for their future child, they were also spotted shopping for baby items at Bel Bambini in West Hollywood on May 27.

They “checked out the furniture and strollers on the second floor and walked around downstairs,” an onlooker tells People magazine.

We are so happy for Kelly and her bundle of joy.

“Thank you for voting me this at 26 ’cause it goes all downhill from here,” she continued. “This is a fun award, I appreciate it, and shout out to all the real men out there.”

 She also ran into Aaron Paul backstage. “My life has been completed!!! #Pinkman4President,” said RiRi after meeting the “Breaking Bad” star.
