Lady Antebellum’s Charles Kelley, wife announce pregnancy

Lady Antebellum singer Charles Kelley and his wife, Cassie, are expecting their first child in February.

Cassie McConnell Kelley made the announcement on her Womanista.com website on Friday.

She wrote that after years of trying to get pregnant, the couple was told they had a 1 per cent chance of conceiving a child naturally. She said they were going to explore other options later this year, but discovered in June that she was pregnant.

They have been married for six years.

The seven-time Grammy-winning country band is currently on its Wheels Up tour.
