Jewel and her husband, Ty Murray, are expecting a child!

The 36-year-old singer and co-host of Bravo’s upcoming show Going Platinum is currently in her second trimester of her first pregnancy.

“I took a pregnancy test and it was positive!” Jewel told People. “It was so hard to keep it a secret. I was worried I’d start throwing up on set and everyone would be like, ‘Oh, she’s pregnant.’ ”

“We’re so excited to be expecting our first baby,” Ty, 41, added. “We always knew we wanted to have a child, and this time in our lives feels right.”

Congratulations to Jewel and Ty!!

Kara DioGuardi and Jewel are set to star in Going Platinum on Bravo!

The singer-songwriter competition show will follow twelve musicians as they write songs in a variety of genres and perform them!

Unlike American Idol, though, the judges will rank contestants instead of the home audience.

Kara, a former American Idol judge, will serve as head judge while Jewel will be the host and give contestants feedback, too.

The winner of Going Platinum will win a $100,000 cash price, a publishing deal with Sony and a recording contract!

Jewel hits the red carpet at the 2010 Emmy Awards on Sunday (August 29) at the Nokia Theatre in Los Angeles.

The 36-year-old singer wore a strapless Zuhair Murad gown paired with a coral-and-diamond cocktail ring by Jacob & Co and Rene Caovilla heels.

She will be performing tonight during the tribute portion of the show. Jewel talked about how she was selected to perform, saying, “I sent them a song that I wrote for a friend who had passed away.” The Emmy producer then picked her to sing the song during the ceremony.

The 36-year-old burlesque beauty shared, “Rachel Pally‘s soft dresses are the perfect way to be both chic and utterly comfortable at the same time. Her dresses are my travel uniform! I have an entire section of my closet just for her dresses!”

Additional celebrity guests (in Rachel Pally) included Amy Smart, Kristen Bell, Rachael Leigh Cook, Jewel, Lisa Rinna, and Sophia Bush.

FYI: Kristen is wearing the Jimmy Choo “Corsica” sandal (Jessica Stroup wore the same shoes last week.)
