Former child star Nikki Webster is set to become a mother. The 26-year-old singer, who tied the knot with her long-time love Matthew McMah last year, revealed to Woman’s Day magazine that the couple were expecting their first child together, due early next year.

“We weren’t trying, so it was a beautiful surprise,” Webster, above, who is seven months pregnant, told the magazine. “We feel very lucky and can’t wait to be parents.”

McMah said he burst into tears when he heard the news.

“I was oven the Moon,” he said. “I don’t think anything, apart from the wedding day, can beat that feeling.”

Since being thrust into the spotlight 13 years ago for her opening-ceremony performance at the Olympic Games in Sydney, Webster has gone on to forge a successful career.

The mum-to-be has three albums under her belt and currently runs her own dance studio.
