She told Entertainment Tonight: ‘I have a little boy named MJ. It was just an amazing trip. What a beautiful gift that 2020 gave me …

“You’re just like, ‘Oh my god, I can not wait to meet you and hold you and kiss you and just spoil you. ‘
Jessica’s pregnancy news comes after it was reported that The Pussycat Dolls are apparently close to signing a new management agreement.
The girl group has impressed music executives with the success of their return hit React and is talking to several US companies, reports The Sun.
Although the band was re-announced on the music scene in 2019, the group had to reschedule their reunion tour twice amid the coronavirus pandemic.
It has now been alleged that the girl group has aroused the interest of Madonna and Britney Spears’ management company, Maverick, as well as to discuss with other large companies.
A source said: ‘The pandemic has hampered plans for The Pussycat Dolls, but as far as they are concerned, they all want to get started as soon as it’s safe.
‘This new team is good news for them and they have a handful of songs they plan to release when they can reunite safely.
“With half the group in the UK and half in the US, it’s tricky, but they’m determined to release some singles in 2021.”
