The couple, who got married in a private ceremony back in January 2023, first announced that they were expecting a baby girl back in July. While filming Hayes from the neck down as she ate some Starbucks food, the “Lonely Child” artist shared the milestone with his followers. “My gangsta had her baby,” he says in the clip. When he took a moment to ask the new mother how she was holding up after the birth, she kept her answer direct. He then asks her how she’s feeling, to which she replies: “Relieved.”

This new baby girl is the third child for the couple, following the birth of Alice in 2021 and Klemenza Tru in 2022. However, the rapper’s family tree extends much further, as the rapper has 10 other children that he shares with six women. His journey as a father started nearly a decade ago when he welcomed his first child, Kayden, with ex-girlfriend Nisha Keller, when he was 16.

The rapper’s children include several sons born in close succession during the early years of his career. His sons, Taylin and Kamiri, were born months apart in 2017 to his former ex-girlfriend Trinia Loveless, and Starr Dejanee. Dejanee had another son, Kamron, whom YoungBoy decided to raise as his own. In 2019, Jania Meshell welcomed their son Kacey.

His daughters and youngest son also make up his large support system. Armani, YB’s first daughter, arrived in 2020, whom he had with Keller. Five months later, he and ex-girlfriend Drea Symone welcomed another daughter, Kodi. Then in 2021, the Baton Rouge rapper and Yaya Mayweather welcomed their first child together, Kentrell DeSean Gaulden Jr. With the arrival of his 13th child, YoungBoy continues to balance his massive family life with his status as one of the most prolific artists in the game.
