Sean Paul welcomes his first child with wife Jodi Stewart Henriques

Lovely news for rapper Sean Paul, as he's announced on Instagram that he's welcomed his first child.

The musician, who is known for hit songs such as Rockabye, Breathe and Got 2 Luv U, shared a picture of himself, wife Jodi Stewart Henriques and their newborn son cuddled up in bed, announcing the unique baby name the pair had chosen.

'AN THEN THERE WERE 3 BIG UP MI SON THE REAL BOSS LEVI BLAZE HENRIQUES AN MY WIFE THE BOSS MOMMY @jodijinx #MIBUMPANMIHEARTPUMP ❤️️🙏🏽🔥🙏🏽❤️️', he wrote alongside the adorable family photograph.

Sean and TV presenter Jodi tied the knot in May 2012 after 10 years together, and revealed that they were having a baby in August 2016, telling fans that their 'lead singer' would be arriving in February of the following year.

'My wife's been doing a lot of preparation and warning me,' Sean said of his impending fatherhood in an interview with BBC News in December. 'But I've always been like, "Ach, I'll be a great dad."

'Then there's times when I'm talking out loud and I'm realising that I'm going to have to clean that filthy mouth out!'

Fans were quick to shower Sean and Jodi with congratulations over the addition to their family.

'Congrats to you and Jodi! He is so sweet. Much love 😘❤,' one wrote, while another agreed: 'Praise the lord 😍 I was really looking forward to see your baby and here we see the angel ❤😍'

A third wrote: 'Congratulations dear SeanPaul. I am a big fan of yours since I was a kid and 1 month ago I became a mother myself. Wish you and your newborn a healthy and happy life ❤❤'

Others, meanwhile, commented on Levi's unique moniker, with one adding: 'What a boss naming your son Blaze!!'
