Alicia Keys ‘blessed’ by relationship

Alicia Keys has enjoyed a “summer of love” to prepare her for motherhood.

The 29-year-old singer is expecting her first child with hip-hop producer Swizz Beatz, 32, in November. To get ready for their new arrival, the couple have been spending as much time together as possible.

They have been on a series of romantic holidays and even tied the knot in an intimate ceremony in Corsica, France, in July. Since then, they have been seen canoodling all over the US, eating dinner together at a different restaurant every night.

Friends say the couple have been putting so much energy into their relationship because they want to build a solid and happy foundation for the family they are about to start.

“It’s been a summer of love for them. Everything is so great. It’s been a real blessing for both of them,” a source told Us Weekly magazine.
