Mariah Carey [photos] and Nick Cannon are expecting their first child together.
In an interview to air on 'Access Hollywood' tonight, Mariah Carey will reveal that she's pregnant.
"Yes, we are pregnant, this is true!," she says. "It's been a long journey. It's been tough because I've been trying to hold on to a shred of privacy but at this point, there is no choice. I either talk or I hibernate."
"It's absolutely emotional," says Nick. "The greatest gift on earth is a child."
In the interview, the couple also talks about a terrifying miscarriage they experienced roughly two years ago. Mariah and Nick were getting ready to tell their friends and family the good news that they were expecting over the holidays when they found out she was no longer pregnant.
"It kind of shook us both and took us into a place that was really dark and difficult," says Mariah. "When that happened… I wasn't able to even talk to anybody about it. That was not easy."
"It definitely brought us closer together," says Nick. "It strengthened our relationship so much... she handled it so well."
