GLEE's Naya Rivera announced via her website today (along with the adorable image below) that she and her husband Ryan Dorsey are expecting their first child. The couple tied the knot last summer in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. Rivera plays 'Santana Lopez' on the FOX musical dramedy series GLEE, now in its final season.

Dorsey, who hails from Charleston, West Virginia, is a graduate of the New York Conservatory for Dramatic Arts. He met Rivera in 2000 in Los Angeles. While the duo were just good friends at first, their romance blossomed in April, following Rivera's broken engagement to rapper Big Sean.

Shared Rivera: "We're having a baby! Ryan and I feel so blessed and can't wait to welcome the newest member of our family."

Rivera also included photos of herself and Ryan as children.

BWW sends our congratulations to the happy couple!
