The “Power” actor also confirmed his son’s arrival on Instagram Story, adding the caption, “Feeling Blessed.”
Earlier this month, the couple broke their exciting baby news to People.
“We are super excited to welcome our son. As first-time parents, everything about this experience has been a brand-new challenge,” they said in a statement. “We love it.”
At the time, Mdee, a singer-songwriter, said she was having a “very smooth” pregnancy, with “some funny cravings and food aversions.”
The two also spoke about their respective parenting styles: While Rotimi believes Vanessa will be a “very passionate, loving and protective mom,” she thinks he is “definitely going to be the cool, calm, collected and fun dad who’s also a great communicative disciplinarian.”
After meeting at an Essence Festival afterparty in New Orleans, the two eventually got engaged December 30, 2020, in Atlanta.
Speaking of Atlanta, just days before announcing his baby’s birth, Rotimi performed with Wale at the Afropunk Festival.
