Carly Rae Jepsen is stepping into a new chapter of her life — motherhood. The pop star, best known for her hit “Call Me Maybe,” announced that she and her husband, music producer Cole M.G.N., are expecting their first child. The news comes less than a month after the couple tied the knot, marking two beautiful milestones in quick succession.
Jepsen shared the announcement on Instagram with a touching black-and-white photoshoot taken at the iconic Hotel Chelsea in New York City. In the pictures, captured by photographer Vanessa Heins, the singer is seen cradling her baby bump while sitting on a bed, dressed in floral pajamas with the top buttons undone to reveal her growing belly. Cole appears behind her, smiling and embracing her gently. The post was captioned simply, “Oh hi baby ♥️,” perfectly matching the tender, intimate feel of the moment.
Fans were quick to point out that the photos might have been taken during the couple’s wedding weekend, as they married at the same location on October 4. Their love story began in 2021, when Jepsen and Cole met while collaborating on her seventh studio album, The Loveliest Time. In an earlier interview, she described one of the album’s tracks, “So Right,” as their “meet-cute,” revealing that their shared passion for music naturally turned into something more.
Carly also mentioned that she and Cole plan to continue creating music together, calling their collaborations “a perfect mix of love and creativity.” Now, as the couple prepares to welcome their first child, it seems that their story — one that started in the studio — is turning into an even sweeter symphony of love and family.
