Swizz Beatz and Alicia Keys are engaged to be married and representatives for the singer have confirmed that the couple is expecting their first child.

The announcement was made earlier today and a rep for Keys has confirmed the news to AllHipHop.com.

Gossip writers Jawn Murray and Marc Malkin of E! also made announcements via their social networks.

“Rep confirms Alicia Keys is pregnant! My scoop was 100% correct! Apparently her & Swizz Beatz are engaged too,” Murray said.

Speculation has been high since a series of images appeared to show a “baby bump” on Keys.

Thus far, neither Keys nor Swizz Beatz camps issued any public statement. This is the first child for Keys, who is 29 years old. Swizz Beatz, 31, has two sons from his ex-wife Mashonda.
