Congratulations are in order for Chloe Stroll and her husband Scotty James as the couple confirmed they are pregnant with their first child.

Chloe, who is a Canadian singer and the older sister of F1 star Lance Stroll, confirmed the news on Instagram on Friday, debuting her growing baby bump in new photos. In a mini-photoshoot, the singer sat with her husband behind her, gently resting his head on hers as she cradled her bump and smiled at the camera.

"This is not a Dad joke," Chloe teased in her caption as she was showered with support from her fans, including actress Catherine Zeta-Jones who penned: "So happy for you both."

Chloe's baby news will no doubt be a boost for the F1 star who will take to the track again this week at his home event, the Canadian Grand Prix. The 25-year-old currently sits 11th in the drivers' championship and will be looking to improve on his best performance of sixth place.

Chloe is the eldest child of billionaire Lawrence Stroll, who is a part-owner of the Aston Martin F1 Team. The businessman made his fortune in fashion, with his own father introducing the iconic Ralph Lauren brand to Canada. Lawrence, alongside business partner Silas Chou also invested in brands like Timmy Hilfier and Michael Kors.
