Jackson was in the midst of her “Unbreakable” world tour when she abruptly called performances to a halt. She announced that she was going to be taking a break from touring so she and her husband Wissam Al Mana could work on a family.
“I thought it was important that you be the first to know. My husband and I are planning our family, so I’m going to have to delay the tour. Please, if you can try and understand that it’s important that I do this now,” Jackson said to fans in a Twitter video in early April.
“I have to rest up, doctor’s orders. But I have not forgotten about you. I will continue the tour as soon as I possibly can,” she added.

Though her age may be of some concern for a pregnancy, a specialist speaking to US Weekly said it’s most likely that she either froze her eggs or used a donor.
Jackson and Al Mana have been married since 2012. They wed secretly and have been extremely private about their relationship since. Al Mana is a Qatari businessman (not to mention billionaire). This is Jackson’s third marriage.
