Tori Kelly And Husband Receive A ‘Little Gift From God’ Two Years After Scary Hospitalization

Tori Kelly and her husband, André Murillo, have good news to share with fans.

The Grammy winner and the basketball player are expecting their first child together. The great news comes two years after Kelly collapsed in public due to a health scare.

Alongside the exciting revelation, the singer teased a new career chapter.

Kelly revealed the exciting news of her pregnancy in a statement to People Magazine, confirming that it happened amid her ongoing European tour with Ed Sheeran.

"This year has already been full of highs — getting to perform in stadiums all summer, writing the most personal songs of my career, and now getting to start a family with my amazing husband," she disclosed.

The statement continued, "We are just so grateful for what's to come and can't wait to meet this little gift from God."

The "Nobody Love" songstress accompanied the announcement with a heartwarming music video featuring her and Murillo, looking so in love. The one-minute clip shot in their home and on the beach ended with a glimpse of the singer's growing baby bump.

Attached to the clip was a snippet of music from her next project. In the lyrics, Kelly sings about sealing their love with a child.

"Yeah, we been everywhere and in between / Yeah, yeah / Making the complicated easy / Felt every kind of feeling / Passed every test / Boxes, checked / I’m ready for what comes next / Let’s make a baby."

Kelly's fans wasted no time camping underneath the post with congratulatory messages for the new chapter.

"Literally so incredibly excited for you guys. What a blessing!!" one fan gushed.

Another sweet comment read, "Huge congratulations on this amazing news, guys!! Today just got brighter!! Wishing you all continued blessings and love!!"

A third fan declared, "Congrats!!! You are going to be such a great mom!!"

Others were moved by the creativity of Kelly and Murillo's announcement video. "The most perfect, poetic & creative announcement ever," another remark read.

The soon-to-be parents have a love story that dates back almost a decade. Kelly and Murillo reportedly began dating in 2016, and later that year, in September, they confirmed their engagement.

Two years later, the lovebirds walked down the aisle in a private ceremony. The "Paper Hearts" singer, who donned a custom pale ivory bridal gown by Galia Lahav for her big day, gushed about her nuptials, per People Magazine.

"To be loved but not known is comforting but superficial. To be known & not loved is our greatest fear. But to be fully known & truly loved is, well, a lot like being loved by God," she wrote, referencing a quote from theologian Tim Keller.

 Kelly and Murillo often keep a low profile, rarely posting about their romance.

The pregnancy news comes nearly two years after Kelly was hospitalized for life-threatening blood clots. In July 2023, the "American Idol" alum collapsed during a Sunday dinner outing with friends in downtown Los Angeles.

Witnesses revealed that the singer complained about feeling uneasy, and within minutes, her heartbeat reportedly quickened, causing her to faint and be "out for a while."

Luckily, a car was standing by and rushed Kelly to Cedars-Sinai Hospital, where doctors discovered clots in her lungs and legs. There were also concerns about possible clots around her heart.

Amidst the difficult time, Kelly had the support of her partner, who often kept fans updated about her condition when the singer was still uncertain.

In an Instagram Story update, Murillo confirmed his wife was doing much better amid fans' fears for her well-being.

"Tori is smiling again and feeling stronger. Not out of the woods, but we see the sun. Just waiting on a few more answers. Your love and kindness has been overwhelming. Thank you so, so much," his statement read, per The Blast.

The athlete also uploaded a video featuring Kelly's verse from her collaboration with singer Justin Bieber on the 2021 track, "Where Do I Fit In."
