Singer Mabel reveals she has welcomed her first child with husband Preye Crooks after secret pregnancy

Singer Mabel has revealed that she's welcomed her first child with her husband Preye Crooks after a secret pregnancy.

The songstress, 30, – whose mother is singer Neneh Cherry – shared the happy news to her Instagram this weekend.

She took to her social media to share a video of moments from her pregnancy as well as her ultrasound scan and finally with her little one.

Her pals were quick to offer their congratulations in the comments, as fellow singer Ella Eyre penned: 'huge congratulations you guys.'  

While her husband Preye sweetly wrote in the caption: 'My Two Superstars.'

Mabel married her long-term partner Preye in a London ceremony last July.

The star tied the knot with the music executive after spending five figures on hiring the Victoria and Albert Museum in Chelsea to host 150 guests.

According to the Sun, guests including Miquita Oliver and her mother Andi partied the night away drinking champagne and margaritas.

An insider told the publication: 'It was quite an intimate affair initially — they had a nice dinner with their closest friends and family to kick things off.

'Then more of their loved ones turned up to celebrate with them in style later in the evening. They all had a brilliant time and Mabel and Preye looked so in love.'

The venue typically costs around £10,000 to hire for wedding parties.

The couple got engaged in November 2024. Preye is the son of former Spurs footballer Garth Crooks.

After Preye popped the question, she proudly showed off her sparkling diamond ring in a video online.

They celebrated with a huge party as the couple were joined by family and friends, with one pal sharing a glimpse of the bash to TikTok.

Mabel, whose full name is Mabel Alabama-Pearl McVey, looked sensational in a pink silk gown and couldn't wipe the smile off her face as she showed off her huge diamond ring which was custom-designed at Jewelry Palace – a family-owned company in Los Angeles.

Meanwhile Preye, who has been dating the singer since 2021, cut a dapper figure as he made a speech to mark the occasion.

The couple looked happier than ever as they slow danced surrounded by rose petals and candles while their guests cheered.

Mabel's debut single Finders Keepers, released in 2017, reached number eight on the UK Singles Chart.

This was followed up two years later with the release of her album High Expectations at number three in the Albums Chart – which later went platinum.

In 2020, just three years after bursting onto the scene, she won a Brit Award for British Female Solo Artist.

In 2018, her musician mother Neneh spoke about nurturing her daughter Mabel in the music industry, revealing she is in awe of her. 

The songstress spoke of the then 22-year-old's success and reflected on motherhood, in an interview with the Evening Standard Magazine admitting she wasn't always 'emotionally accessible'. 

She said: 'Mabel is unbelievable and so focused and it's hard out there. 

'She gets up sometimes and she's doing two or three sessions a day. I'm in awe of her and so I try to support her with basic mum things, like making her a take-out lunch.' 

Mabel previously insisted she doesn't want her parents' help when it comes to her own music career.

'When I was in my teens, and was like, 'I really want to do music',' she told the publication. I felt quite embarrassed by being my mum and dad's daughter. I thought, 'People will never take me seriously'.'
