The singer, who has been in a long-term relationship with boyfriend Leyman Lahcine, revealed the news on Facebook as she updated fans on how her fourth studio album was progressing
In a lengthy letter, the 35-year-old wrote: "So the good news is my 4th album is well underway and I am very excited about it. It's actually nearly finished as I type! I have been working with the amazing Jesse Shatkin on it as producer and it has been a real honour.
"It is called 'the architect' and is very aptly named as it leads me on to my next announcement. I am so delighted to tell you I am going to take a short while off to have a baby.
"I have spent my whole life wanting to be a mother and now the time has come for me to do so. I feel so lucky. This means I won't be involved in The Voice this year or releasing my album this year either.
"So while you are all patiently waiting I would like you to know what I am grateful for your continued support and patience and I hope that you will respect my new family with our privacy in a time which should be calm and without anxiety.
"I really do not want this child to be in the public eye as it won't have chosen to and I hope everyone can understand that."
She continued: "I am nervous and excited about being a mum and just need to be normal and low key for a while. Pregnancy and motherhood is a very personal thing: daunting, new and worrying at times and I don't want to add to it by having to 'look' a certain way when pregnant or be photographed pregnant or with my child.
"I wasn't raised like that and I don't want my child to be. I want the baby to have the freedom of a normal life.
"When I return I will be full of energy and excited to come and sing for you again. I am passionate about my job and what I do in the public eye but consider these to be two separate things, not one in the same.
"The album is sounding super exciting and I can't wait to share it with you all. I am very lucky and grateful in the knowledge I will get to do so very soon. Your loyalty is a gift and astounds me every album release.
"I am grateful for your understanding and promise to return fully fledged when I have had this moment of solitude and new life. I am beyond happy about it."
Faith was previously married to chef Rian Haynes. They married in 2005 but separated just eight months later. They divorced in 2009.
