Delta's BABY NEWS!

After scaling back on work, the singer is finally ready for the next exciting chapter in her life

For the past few years, Delta Goodrem has spoken openly about wanting to be a mum, telling friends and the public alike that it will happen when the timing is just right.

In the meantime, she has been getting plenty of practice playing “Auntie Dee” to her brother Trent’s kids, Emmy, two, and Nate, four.

Now, it seems, the 36-year-old Innocent Eyes singer and her partner Matthew Copley have decided it’s finally Delta’s turn to become a mother.

“She has often spoken about timing and her schedule,” says a source. “She wants to be there 24/7 for her child and at times her work-life balance didn’t allow for that. She spent her teens, 20s and into her 30s focused purely on her music, acting and, of course, beating her Hodgkin’s lymphoma diagnosis. She’s seen and done a lot for her age, and now her mind has turned to the next chapter in her life. She has babies on the brain.”
