Jordin Sparks reveals she is married and expecting her first child

It is a very exciting moment for Jordin Sparks. On Tuesday 14, the “One Step at a Time” singer revealed that she secretly tied the knot with her boyfriend, Dana Isaiah, on July 16 in Hawaii.

And that’s not even the best part! They are also expecting their first child together. “We’re both really excited,” says Sparks about finally opening up about their happy news. “He’s been like, ‘I want to shout it from the mountain tops!’ We’re really proud to be married to each other and to be celebrating this.,” they confirm to People magazine.

Sparks, 27 and Isaiah, 25, met when each of their mothers put them together in a group text because Isaiah wanted to move to Los Angeles to pursue a modelling career.

“My mom was trying to get Jordin to talk me out of moving to Los Angeles because she’s experienced the industry out here,” Isaiah recalled. “It wasn’t like, ‘We want you guys to date.’”

But the pair bonded quickly over their tight-knit families and shared Christian faith. After talking nearly every day for a month, Isaiah flew out to Los Angeles for an agency meeting and met his future wife for the first time over Easter weekend.

“A couple days after we had actually met, I was like in my head, “that’s going to be my husband! That’s my husband right there,’” says Sparks,

On July, the couple eloped while on vacation in Hawaii with a small group of friends. “It just more solidifies the whole team sentiment of a relationship,” says Sparks.

“You know you’re still individuals, but at the same time, everything is about ‘we’ and After surprising their loved ones with their wedding news, the couple received the biggest shock of their lives when Sparks discovered she was pregnant in late August.

“It’s been really crazy because everything changes,” says Sparks. “Once we got over the initial shock of it, now again just like it is with the marriage, to be able to share that this amazing thing is happening, it’s such a great thing. We did this together!”

With Isaiah now settled in Los Angeles and their first child on the way, the singer — who swore off love last year after going through high-profile breakups — is counting her blessings and embracing all the changes in her life.

“I’d gone through a crazy time last year, so I was just like ‘You know what? I’m good. I’m going to stay single. I’m just not going to look,’” says Sparks.

“It is amazing that that phrase “When you don’t look for it, that’s when it comes” … he just showed up at my door.”

Adds the singer: “I’m extremely grateful because life is nuts. This is the best part so far because I have Dana and I have this little one and I have a new family. I’m the most content I’ve ever been in my life. ‘us’ as opposed to ‘you’ and ‘I.’”
