Jill Scott Pregnancy & Marriage Rumors Confirmed

From AOL Black Voices:

Jill Scott recently spoke to the media and confirmed that she is indeed in the second trimester of her pregnancy.....

Now the Philly-bred songstress went on the record for the first time about the pregnancy while promoting her forthcoming HBO series, 'The No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency' spoke openly about being with child.

The first trimester I spent in Botswana. That was one of the biggest challenges of my life. First trimester! You're sick every morning. It was seven hours time difference, the heat, the bugs, the 14 hour days," she said to reporters at the Television Critics Association conference in Los Angeles on Friday.

Despite being pregnant while shooting the show in Africa, Scott said she's glad she went forward with the production.

"My doctors gave me a clean bill of health and said you can do this, so I did it," she offered.
The 36-year-old Grammy-winner is due on April 25.

Scott and Roberts were engaged on June 20, 2008 and BV Buzz has now learned exclusively that the couple will wed next weekend.

This will be the 'Why Did I Get Married' singer's second marriage.

She was previously married for five years to graphic artist and deejay Lyzel Williams. They announced their divorce in June of 2007.




I already picked up this story from Jawn Murray's column on AOL's Black Voices but I just wanna know what's up with the photo the ran with the story? Could it be that it was the only picture the photographer took OR the only one available???? Probably not.


Uh...this ain't the most flattering picture that I have seen of Jill....I KNOW she's preggers and is (or should be) glowing from all that "baby love" coming from inside her but seriously family......




This picture is JUST WRONG. I HATE this picture. Just hate it. And I will leave it at that.

Congratulations to the happy couple on their upcoming nuptials and the new addition to their family!

“Marriage is not a love affair. A love affair is a totally different thing. A marriage is a commitment to that which you are. That person is literally your other half. And you and the other are one. A love affair isn’t that. That is a relationship of pleasure, and when it gets to be unpleasurable , it’s off. But a marriage is a life commitment, and a life commitment means the prime concern of your life. If marriage is not the prime concern, you are not married.” -Joseph Campbell
