Prior to the baby announcement, there had been rumors of the rapper's fiancee showing signs of pregnancy, Page Six reports.
Page Six spies allegedly spotted Davis not drinking in a loose-fitting black dress while attending Macklemore's performance at 1OAK for New Year's eve.
"Tricia wasn't drinking while everyone else had a cocktail," said a Page Six source."She was dancing and standing in the back, but not really with the crowd. If Macklemore wasn't performing, he was right next to her, guarding her."
The source also claimed to have seen "Davis put her hand on her stomach" during the music-filled night. "That's when you could see a baby bump!" the source continued.
In a recent interview with Hot 97, Macklemore addressed his family life and revealed that he had taken a hiatus from music to spend quality time with his fiancee and focus on family.
Macklemore didn't give a specific date for his new album during the interview, however, Billboard reports that the rapper replied to a fan online and tweeted that his album is scheduled to arrive sometime this year.
