Romeo Miller is a dad

Romeo Miller has become a father for the first time.

The 32-year-old rapper and actor took to Instagram to reveal he and his girlfriend Drew Sangster have welcomed a baby girl into the world.

In a caption alongside a video of himself and Drew surrounded by pink balloons, he wrote: "It’s been hard to hold this in, but it was important for us to make sure our baby girl got here safe and healthy before making any announcements to the world during this sacred journey. Psalms 127:3 Behold, children are a heritage from the LORD, the fruit of the womb a reward.

My great granny always said if you live long enough, you’ll realize that everything (and the best things) are on God’s time, never yours. The best Valentines ever. Been waiting for this moment my entire life. Thank you @drewsangster. I’m a #GirlDad babbbbbyyy. Song: Unchained Melody. (sic)"

In another post, he wrote: "Meet Baby R!

Ps: Baby R and her mom got a new baby company coming soon; mines gone be good for life. Go follow @thedrewyco and visit DrewyCo.com #GenerationalWealth #GirlDad #GodisGood #Ownership #BabyBoss #TheBestDayEver (sic)"
