Beyoncé Knowles Confirms Baby Due In February: ‘I’m Very Grateful’

By Alexis Tereszcuk - RadarOnline.com Senior Reporter

Beyoncé Knowles’ little bundle of joy is due in February, confirming the news that RadarOnline.com exclusively reported back in August!

The 30-year-old superstar announced that she and her husband Jay-Z will become parents next year, and said that being pregnant “already has changed my life.”

In an interview with Australia’s Sunday Night Beyoncé spoke about her excitement over becoming a mother.  “I just feel like it’s time and I’m very grateful that God has blessed me with the biggest gift any human can have.”

She said that she and Jay-Z waited for a reason.  “I think because I’ve accomplished a lot of things for myself and I really know who I am, I didn’t rush into anything. If there’s any time, right now is the time, and I’m so happy.”

As RadarOnline.com previously reported, Beyoncé and Jay-Z are hoping to have a baby boy.

Her sister, Solange Knowles, has a six-year-old son named Daniel Julez Smith Jr. with her ex-husband, Daniel Smith, and an insider told RadarOnline.com the family is excited for Julez to have a playmate.

“Of course having a little boy for Julez to play with would be ideal, so they have their fingers crossed,” the source said.

“But both Beyoncé and Jay are just so happy to be having a baby; they don’t care what it is!"
