Jordin Sparks Accused of 'Trapping' Her Husband After Announcing Secret Wedding & Baby on the Way
Surprise! Jordin Sparks is married and expecting her first child! The season six American Idol winner shocked the world with her news that has many people celebrating the 27-year-old mom-to-be ... and some slamming the singer for what they feel to be a "shotgun wedding" -- going as far to say she "trapped" her new husband (*eye roll*).
Jordin is all smiles with her husband Dana Isaiah as she cradles her growing baby bump.
The expectant mom tells *People* exclusively that she and Dana eloped in Hawaii on July 16 after officially meeting over Easter back in April -- after one month of talking every day on the phone. (Jordin and Dana's moms "introduced" them via group text in March.)
"A couple days after we had actually met, I was like in my head 'That's going to be my husband! That's my husband right there," Sparks tells *People*. "When I'm with him, I feel comfort and safety and calm and peace, and those aren't things that I normally felt. So it was a little wake-up call for me."

Just one month after saying "I do" in front of a few friends, the couple discovered they're expecting and look forward to welcoming their first child sometime next spring.
"I'd gone through a crazy time last year, so I was just like 'You know what? I'm good. I'm going to stay single. I'm just not going to look,'" adds Sparks. "It's amazing that that phrase 'When you don't look for it, that's when it comes' ... he just showed up at my door. I'm extremely grateful because life is nuts. This is the best part so far because I have [Dana] and I have this little one and I have a new family. I'm the most content I've ever been in my life."
