Alicia Keys has revealed she is due to give birth to her second child with husband Swizz Beatz on New Year’s Eve (31.12.14).

The Girl On Fire hitmaker – who is expecting her second child with husband Swizz Beatz – has revealed they are set to become parents again at the end of the year.

Speaking on The View on Monday night (29.09.14), she said: “It’s looking like December, they tell me December 31. I think that’s kinda cute.”

The singer – who has three-year-old son Egypt with her husband – also discussed her new single Here We Are and the movement she is leading to create a peaceful world for her children, and admitted being a mother has influenced her passion for change.

She added: “Definitely being a mother has definitely given me more of a fierceness and an understanding about just what I believe in that much more.”

Alicia is keen to help make the world a better place to ensure her children have a great life in the future.

She explained: “I think no matter who you are and what we might disagree on, or whatever we might think differently about – one thing we can all agree about is that we want a peaceful world for our children.”
