It's a day of double the joy for Lily Allen!
Not only did the British songbird tie the knot with her business owner boyfriend Sam Cooper Saturday in Gloucestershire, England, but a source confirms to Us Weekly the newlyweds are expecting their first child.
"It's true. Sam announced it during his [wedding] speech," a source close to the couple confirms to Us. "They are over the moon -- this is the best possible news on the best day."
One hundred of Allen and Cooper's friends and family looked on as the happy couple swapped vows at St. James the Great church. For her big day, Allen wore a custom gown designed for her by French designer Dephine Manivet. Escorted down the aisle by her father, Keith, the expectant bride carried a bouquet of white roses.

Cooper, 32, popped the question to Allen, 26, on Christmas Day last year on the Indonesian island of Bali.
"Lily was overwhelmed" and started crying, the U.K.'s Daily Mail reported at the time of the "Smile" singer.

In recent interviews, Allen has described Cooper as "the love of my life."
"Sam treats me differently. He's told me he'll look after me forever. That's what I've always wanted -- someone to look after me," she told the U.K. Sun of her beau, who operates an upscale design store. "We've never had one argument and there's absolutely nothing about him that annoys me."

The couple's weekend nuptials are a happy highlight for Allen and Cooper, who suffered a devastating miscarriage in November when Allen was six months pregnant. Nearly three years ago, she had a miscarriage during her relationship with musician Ed Simons.
Allen has said having children is "ultimately my main goal" in life.

22Here's to her happiness and I really hope this baby is born healthy.
Even though i dont know Lily Allen, congrats to her and i pray that she has her child and is happy and healthy. thats all i can say.
At the person who said sick right-to-lifers. I'm Pro Life. To me it doesn't matter if the baby dies the first week it is made or if you go the whole nine months and it's still born. A baby is still a baby and no matter if it is not fully grown it is still a life and your comment was sick and uncalled for. How would you feel if you went through the same pain Lilly or anyone who has lost a child? You would prob think differently about what you say.
I know someone who was just like Lilly. She had a hard time carring a baby and lost her first two babies just like Lilly did. But her third baby was born. So Lilly even though just like the person I know has a very hard time, it is possible to carry a baby to term and have it born alive and healthy. There is so much medical can do now for women who go through so many probs when wanting to have children. So best wishes to Lilly and her husband and I hope third time is the charm and I wish them both a healthy, happy baby.
@jesse..put the bong down and go back to English class so that you can understand the main point of somebody's post. But here..I'll try to make it easier for you to understand. If you have lost a child and become pregnant again - it is incredibly hurtful when people disregard your first baby. Has nothing to do with being a right to lifer - just the awareness that this poor girl has lost two babies and that their lives mattered to her. When you have lost a child it does matter how it is said, especially when it is being blasted across the cover of a magazine. Was that easier for you to understand?
Who cares how they put it... she is pregnant again!
Wow, you would think with her history she wouldn't want to announce her pregnancy so early but I suppose they are both so excited to start their lives together. I just hope she is able to carry this baby full-term.
@ Jesse, your an insensitive sicko. Not everybody believes that a woman who is pregnant is not carrying a life. A stillborn certainly is a baby, born..still.
That said, I truly hope that she is able to carry this baby to term. Any person that struggles with infertility and miscarriage has a difficult journey...I hope she is finally able to have a child!
Jess, what an unnecessary and nasty post! What is a "sick right to lifer?" It isn't her first child! The still-born baby born at six months was likely viable...as baby's can be at 23 weeks. A child that dies gestationally was still a child.
Jesse, what a nasty post! A still-born child is still a child. Children do, though, not often survive when born after six months gestation. Losing a child at any point is painful, even if you don't consider it a "life" (which it is).
Kristen youre one of those sick right-to-lifers arent you?? Leave them alone!! Congratulations to them!! She looks beautiful and I hope she has a healthy baby!!
How hurtful and insensitive.....they are not expecting their first child. She lost her first child to miscarriage and her second was stillborn. Just because they are not here doesn't mean they didn't exist.
gret for her but,the doctors told her she cant carry a child full term somthing about her blodd,,why would she put her self throiugh such pain,,,
At least she is getting married.
She looks gorgeous. Love the dress and the veil. After all she's been through, it's good to see her happy. Congrats!
I'm so happy for her; especially after going through a miscarriage. I wish them all the best.
I hope 3rd time is the charm for her. I can't imagine the heartache of 2 miscarriages, so let this be a happy healthy pregnancy!
Congrats to the happy expectant newlyweds hopefully they get a child this time. her past history with pregnancy hasn't been fun to watch first the miscarriage in January of 08 then her & Sam's still born son last October. I think she more closely resembles Princess Diana when she married Prince Charles 30 years ago than princess leia
She looks happy and beautiful. Here's hoping for a healthy, safe pregnancy!
