“One more person to Love,” the couple captioned the post.

The Times of India on Monday reported that the announcement comes as Ciara continues to balance motherhood with her music career, recalling her experience of taking her children on tour.

“My kids travelled with me, and I couldn’t have done it any other way,” Ciara told PEOPLE in 2024, according to The Times of India.

She also said, “It was the most amazing time with my babies. I was like, ‘This is what life is about.’ So, the little joys in life. I’m so grateful.”

Ciara and Wilson married in 2016 and have since built a blended family.

The forthcoming baby will be Ciara’s fifth child and her fourth with Wilson.

Wilson, 37, is a former NFL quarterback who announced his retirement from professional football in June after a 14-season career.

The couple’s announcement was shared jointly on Instagram, where they celebrated the impending arrival with the caption, “One more person to Love.”
