After confirming the news via his Instagram account, Trey Songz is officially a father.
According to Music News , the speculation started when he posted a photo of a baby’s foot against his hand to his page. He also posted a picture of himself with a baby on his chest, which was soon deleted. Songz had yet to confirm who the child was and if it was his, which led fans to feel confused.
A couple of hours later, the “Simply Amazing” hitmaker posted a photo of his baby son and confirmed the news.
“My son Noah. We are blessed and overjoyed. Peace,” he captioned the Instagram snap.
Within 17 hours of posting, the image has been liked by over 1.2 million fans who are thrilled for him.
Something that is yet to be confirmed is who the mother of the child is. Previously, Songz was dating model Lori Harvey earlier this year but was thought to have gone their separate ways.
In 2015, the “Bottoms Up” star told Charlamagne Tha God in an interview that he was desperate to have kids.
“Man I want kids. I’ve been wanting children before you could even imagine,” he revealed.
“I raised all the kids in my family. My younger brother, he’s 20-years-old, he just had his first child. I remember when he was a child. I used to burp him, change his diapers, now he got a baby,” he continued, implying he was already father material back then.
