Bollywood actress Shilpa Shetty has confirmed she is expecting her first child with husband Raj Kundra.
The 36-year-old star, who also found fame in the UK on Celebrity Big Brother in 2007, took to her Twitter page to tell fans her happy news.
She wrote: 'Tweetos, 'YES' an addition to our family is our confirmation to all queries :) We seek blessings from all in this very beautiful phase of our lives.'
This is the first child for Shetty. But her London-based businessman Kundra husband, who she married in 2009, has a daughter from a previous relationship.
Shetty is thought to be in her second trimester.
A source close to the actress is quoted by the Times of India as saying: 'Shilpa suffered a miscarriage earlier this year, so this time Raj and she did not want to break the news till the first trimester was complete. Now, she has started telling her close friends.'
