Chelsea Clinton pregnant with first child

Chelsea Clinton is pregnant with her first child.

Former First Daughter Chelsea Clinton, 34, and husband Marc Mezvinsky will welcome the new addition to their family later this year.

The daughter of former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton currently serves as vice chair of the charitable Clinton Foundation, focusing on global health initiatives.

Chelsea Clinton has told US media she has not ruled out a political run in the future.

She made the announcement at a public event with her mother in New York organized by a Clinton Foundation initiative to advance the cause of women and girls around the world.

“Mark and I are very excited that we have our first child arriving,” Chelsea Clinton said.

“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,” she added.

“I just hope that I will be as good a mom to my child… as my mother was to me.”

Hillary Clinton is currently considered a strong contender for the 2016 Democratic presidential nomination, although she has yet to announce her intent to run.
