NEW YORK

Adele is celebrating another milestone — a pregnancy.

The superstar singer’s representative confirmed Friday that the 24-year-old is expecting a child.

The message was posted on her official website, which crashed due to a large amount of traffic after the news was announced.

It’s unclear how far along the British singer is.

Adele won six Grammys earlier this year for her best-selling “21” album.

Though that disc was based on heartbreak, she has since found love with Simon Konecki.

It will be the singer’s first child.

With her first two singles from “21,” “Rolling in the Deep” and “Someone Like You”, Adele became the first living artist to achieve the feat of two top five hits on the charts simultaneously since the Beatles in 1964.
