“11.11 is just perfect and so is he and you and all of it,” pop star Jessie J commented, while Priscilla Shirer wrote, “Everything. 💜”
Kelly revealed in July that she was pregnant, telling PEOPLE, “This year has already been full of highs — getting to perform in stadiums all summer, writing the most personal songs of my career and now getting to start a family with my amazing husband.”
“We are just so grateful for what’s to come and can’t wait to meet this little gift from God,” she concluded.
Kelly and Murillo started dating in 2016 and announced their engagement the following year. The couple wed in 2018, with the singer calling it “the most magical day ever.”
In an Instagram post celebrated the wedding, the Grammy-winner quoted theologian Tim Keller in her caption, writing, “To be loved but not known is comforting but superficial. To be known & not loved is our greatest fear. But to be fully known & truly loved is, well, a lot like being loved by God.”
In an interview with PEOPLE shortly after their first wedding anniversary, Kelly shared, “He’s the best. Once you have your person, it’s like, we’re together for real now. Then you just get to learn about each other and see the not so pretty parts of a person. I think I’ve learned a lot about myself too, and what I need to work on. It has forced me to look inward, so it’s overall just growth.”
Kelly’s last album, 2024’s Tori, was released shortly after she was hospitalized for life-threatening blood clots. The singer made a full recovery and said the experience gave her a new appreciation for her life.
“When I look at just my life, my career and getting to go on these tours, I’m just like, ‘I don’t want to take anything for granted because life as I now have experienced is so fragile,’” she told PEOPLE. “I’m just holding people a little closer.”
In an interview with Variety, she added, “I have this new fire in me…I have this new gratefulness just to be doing what I’m doing.”
It looks like Kelly and Murillo are more than ready to begin this new chapter together!
