Tori confirmed in June that she and Andre were expecting their first child together, after the pair married in May 2018.
She told People magazine: ‘This year has already been full of highs – getting to perform in stadiums all summer, writing the most personal songs of my career and now getting to start a family with my amazing husband.
‘We are just so grateful for what’s to come and can’t wait to meet this little gift from God.’
Sing star Tori – who rose to fame as a contestant on American Idol in 2010 – also released a video featuring herself and Andre at home and on the beach, soundtracked by new music inspired by her new stage of life.
She sings: ‘Only you know me / Mind and my body / Riding with you down this road / We got forever to go / When we get closer / And when I hold ya / You make it feel just like home.
‘And there’s no one here but you and me / We’ve been through it / Yeah, we been everywhere and in between / Yeah, yeah / Making the complicated easy / Felt every kind of feeling / Passed every test / Boxes, checked.
