Chelsea Clinton is pregnant, expecting baby with Marc Mezvinsky

Chelsea Clinton is pregnant, which means her mom, Hillary Rodham Clinton, is going to be a grandma!

Of course, Chelsea’s husband, Marc Mezvinsky, is going to be a first-time dad and her father, Bill, the former president, will don the “grandpa� title, but it was mother and daughter who were onstage together Thursday in New York City when the former first daughter made her announcement.

“Marc and I are very excited that we have our first child arriving later this year,� the youngest Clinton said in at the Lower Eastside Girls Club, Politics Now reported.

“And I certainly feel all the better, whether it’s a girl or a boy, that she or he will grow up in a world full of so many strong, young female leaders,� the 34-year-old added. “So thank you for inspiring me and inspiring future generations, including the one that we’ll be lucky enough to welcome into our family later this year.�

Actress America Ferrera of “Ugly Betty� fame was moderating and the Clinton women were hosts at the Clinton Foundation’s “Girls: A No Ceilings Conversation� event.

“Marc and I are so thrilled to be expecting our first child in the fall! Thank you for all of the kind words!,� the mother-to-be said later on Twitter.

The former secretery of State also celebrated on social media, writing, “My most exciting title yet: Grandmother-To-Be! @billclinton and I are thrilled that Chelsea and Marc are expecting their first child!�

Meanwhile, the former president said he was “Excited to add a new line to my Twitter bio...grandfather-to-be!,� though on Thursday afternoon his bio had yet to reflect his new status. Hey, give him time, right? “@hillaryclinton and I are so happy for Chelsea and Marc!�

Mezvinsky, an investment banker, and Clinton got married in summer 2010 with an interfaith ceremony at Astor Farms in Rhineland, N.Y. A couple since 2005, they got engaged in November 2009.

“[W]e decided we were going to make 2014 the Year of the Baby,� she told Glamour magazine last year, discussing a life “to-do� list she’d made with her husband. “And please, call my mother and tell her that. She asks us about it every single day.�

Hillary, your wish is granted.
