Singer Sophie B. Hawkins is pregnant at 50 and due to deliver her second child -- a daughter -- this July.
People magazine said Hawkins was implanted with an embryo she had frozen when she was 31, while the sperm was provided by a donor.
The recording artist is already the mother of a 6-year-old son named Dashiell.
"I found Dashiell really needs a sibling," Hawkins told the magazine.
"My son has one parent who's 50. I want him to have a family of young people too!" she explained. "I went through waking up crying and saying: 'Am I too old? Will I suddenly at 51 have my knees give out?' Now I don't have any of those fears because I feel healthy and strong. I'm also setting up a good net of support, and that's the key to anybody having a child."
