Singer Fergie has announced she and her actor husband Josh Duhamel are expecting their first baby. 

"Josh & Me & BABY makes three!!!' tweeted the 37-year-old singer, with the hashtag 'Mylovelybabybump', a reference to her hit song with the Black Eyed Peas, The Irish Examiner reported.

The couple, who married three years ago, spoke about their desire to start a family during an appearance on Oprah's Next Chapter last year, US Magazine reported. 

While both agreed they were looking forward to parenthood, Duhamel said he hoped to one day have five children, while Fergie, whose real name is Stacy Ferguson, was quick to correct him. "We negotiated that early on," the 37-year-old singer said.

"Two is our number."

Alongside her announcement Fergie tweeted childhood pictures of her and Josh.
