Cher opened up her post with a comment about her music career, writing that she's been taking some well-deserved time off from being in the public eye to focus on making an album that she can be proud of. 

"I know it seems like I’ve been quiet for a while but I wanted to take this opportunity to bring you all up to speed on what I’ve been up to over the last year. 

"I decided to take some time away from the public eye to focus on what really matters and get back to what I truly love doing. As you all know, making music and singing is where it all began for me, it’s what makes me truly happy, and I wanted to get back to that happy place once again, enter the studio and focus on simply making great music for you all.

"I’m so happy to announce that I now have a collection of amazing new songs (that I cannot wait to share with you all!)."

Cher married her hairdresser boyfriend Craig Monk back in 2013 after the couple had been dating for two years. She signed off her pregnancy announcement by declaring: "I’m excited for all that 2018 has in store for me and I can’t wait to see you all very soon! Cher x."

Massive congratulations to future parents, Cher and Craig!
