They’ve been keeping this on the D.L., but a photo first appearing on Terez Owens shows that she is very pregnant, so the child should be here soon.

The baby will be the first for Yvette, while Jordan, now the Charlotte Bobcats owner, has three children from his previous marriage to Juanita Venoy.

The duo were married 17 years before splitting in 2006. They have sons Jeffrey Michael, 24, and Marcus James, 22, and daughter Jasmine, 19, together.

Jordan, 50, and Yvette Prieto, 34, tied the knot seven months ago in a lavish wedding held in Palm Beach, Fla. They’ve been together more than five years.

 

MJ and the Cuban-American model were joined by famous pals, including Robin Thicke, Usher, Tiger Woods, Patrick Ewing and Spike Lee, for the occasion.

Congratulations to the soon-to-be parents!
