Jennifer Hudson will be an “amazing” mother, says her ‘Dreamgirls’ co-star.

Anika Noni Rose is confident the singer-and-actress, who is believed to be seven months pregnant, will have no problems adapting to parenthood.

She said: "She will be a great, amazing and loving mom. Having seen her with babies myself, that baby of hers is going to have a good time and be much loved.

"She loves babies and now that she going to be a mother herself this experience is going to be fun and rewarding for her. She will have no problems taking on the responsibilities.”

Anika, 36, also spoke about the emotional battle 27-year-old Jennifer has faced since her mother, brother and nephew were murdered last November.

She added to People magazine: "I just hope that with a baby that each day brings her joy and the ability to come back to her wonderful self.

"It's been a harrowing year for her and I hope that she finds comfort, joy and support and that she can move forward with her new baby."

Jennifer, who is engaged to lawyer-turned-wrestler David Otunga, has yet to confirm she is expecting her first child.

However, she was joined by close friends and family for a baby shower in Chicago earlier this month.

Actress Felicia Fields, a long-time friend of the Oscar-winning star, said: "It was a baby shower, a quiet gathering of friends and mostly family. They're really trying to keep it kind of quiet.”
