Ne-Yo is a father, once again. Less than a month after he and longtime girlfriend, Atlanta boutique owner Monyetta Shaw, revealed that they were expecting their second child, a son, Shaw gave birth to their new baby boy, Mason Evan Smith, on Oct. 9.
According to People, a rep for the singer confirmed the birth and on the Oct. 14, Ne-Yo posted a celebratory tweet to share the news with fans about the arrival of his healthy baby boy.
“Sal-u twit fam. If you are truly fam you’ll help me welcome the heir to my throne, born OCT. 9TH at 6 pounds, 10 ounces! Mason Evan Smith!” tweeted Ne-Yo.
Ne-Yo and Shaw welcomed their first child, daughter Madilyn Grace Smith, less than a year ago in November 2010. At the time of Madilyn’s birth, an overjoyed Ne-Yo tweeted, “Feels like I’m in luv for the first time,” he tweeted at the time. “Welcoming that lil’ girl to the world last night defined for me what ‘willing to kill and die for’ truly means. My world, my life, all hers.”
No doubt, Ne-Yo feels the same way about his newborn son. Congratulations to Ne-Yo and his growing family. –nicholas robinson
