Jenna Dewan is expecting her first child with boyfriend Steve Kazee.

The actress and dancer, 38, and her partner, 43, confirmed the news to People magazine on Tuesday.

“We are beyond overjoyed and couldn’t be happier to be expanding our family,” they told the US publication.

This will be Kazee’s first child, while Dewan is already mother to six-year-old daughter Everly, who she shares with former husband Channing Tatum.

The couple are thought to have started dating last summer and were first photographed together in October, shortly before Dewan filed for divorce from Tatum citing irreconcilable differences.

They have largely chosen to keep their relationship out of the spotlight but have since shared a handful of sweet social media tributes to one another.

On Valentine’s Day, Kazee shared a photo of Dewan on Instagram, writing that it was an “honor” [sic] “to have this be the person that I get to be side by side with throughout this wild journey we call life.”

“Jenna I don’t know what I did to deserve your love but I will always be so thankful that our lives found their way to each other,” he continued.

Dewan then shared a photo of the pair cuddled up a few months later, captioning it: “Speaking of peace...”

The Step Up star was previously married to Tatum from 2009 until 2018, when the couple announced that they had “lovingly chosen to separate.”

“Absolutely nothing has changed about how much we love one another, but love is a beautiful adventure that is taking us on different paths for now,” they wrote in a joint statement, promising that they would both “always be loving dedicated parents to Everly.”

Tatum has since started dating musician Jessie J.
