Eva Marcille exclusively confirms to BET.com that she is expecting her first child with songwriter Kevin McCall. The model and actress, who is five months pregnant, tells BET.com,

"Being able to bring a life into the world is every woman’s dream but for me it’s more than just a dream it is a magical, mystical journey which I get to share with this amazing man." Eva adds, "Kevin is the only man who I would share this moment in life with.”

We were introduced to Marcille, 28, when she won cycle three of America's Next Top Model in 2005. The Los Angeles native continued to conquer film and television, especially in her role as Tyra Hamilton on The Young and the Restless, which earned her two NAACP Image Award nominations.

Eva is part of the BET family: She's hosted My Model Looks Better Than Your Model and Rip the Runway and has appeared in Let's Stay Together. Marcille will also guest star on the upcoming second season of Real Husbands of Hollywood.

“My life continues to be a bundle of incredible experiences,” says Marcille. “I get to do this incredible show on BET and I get to be a mom and live this amazing life that God has bestowed upon me. Who could ask for anything more?”

Congratulations to Eva!
