R&B star Usher’s wife, Tameka, gave birth to the couple’s second child on Wednesday, a rep for the star confirmed to Access Hollywood.
“Usher and Tameka Raymond welcomed their second son, Naveid Ely Raymond, on Wednesday, December 10th at 2:33 AM, weighing 5lbs, 13 oz.,” the rep said in a statement. “Tameka and the baby are doing fine.”
Baby Naveid joins big brother Usher Raymond V, who was born just over a year ago, on November 27. The couple married in 2007.
Last month, Usher confirmed exclusively to Access Hollywood that his wife was expecting.
“Definitively. We’re actually expecting, if you didn’t hear, in December,” Usher told Access backstage at his concert at LA’s Club Nokia. “One of the best Christmas gifts there is to have!”
And as for his new son’s name? Though they settled on Naveid, the Raymonds had a tough time picking one.
“There are a few names [in the running],” Usher said at the time. “But if you guys have any unique one, please feel free to hit me up. Let me know.”
