A shyly smiling and very pregnant Janet Jackson was snapped coming out of a baby furniture store in London earlier this week, providing visual proof that the 50-year-old singer is indeed with child.

Jackson, who postponed her tour earlier this year after announcing she and husband Wissam Al Mana planned to start a family, has rarely been seen in public.

Entertainment Tonight, which has the paparazzi shots of the singer in sweatpants, sneakers, a dark sweater and scarf around her head, reports that Jackson arrived in a chauffeured black Mercedes along with her bodyguard, her assistant and two other people. The doors were closed for her 45-minute visit.

Jackson and her husband have a home in London. No due date has been confirmed for their impending arrival, but baby-bump-watchers indicate November.
