Rapper Ray J, born William Raymond Norwood Jr., has announced that he is expecting baby number two in January 2020 with his wife Princess Love. The ex-boyfriend of Kim Kardashian West took to Instagram to share the news with a selection of adorable family photos.

Ray J and Princess Love, full name Princess Pilipina Love Norwood, welcomed their first child into the world, a daughter named Melody Love, in May 2018. The 15-month-old even has her own Instagram account, where her parents share sweet pictures of their daughter as she grows up.

Ray J and Princess Love, who star in the reality series Love and Hip Hop Hollywood, were married in August 2016. Though dealing with tumultuous relationship woes during their stint on the reality show, their wedding was a fairytale come true. Princess shared, “I just love him to the point where it doesn’t matter what he does. He’s the only person I’ve ever been with that I couldn’t see myself without.”

At the wedding, Ray J’s father officiated the ceremony and his sister, famed singer Brandy, sang “At Last” for the newlyweds’ first dance. Ray J, who isn’t usually one to become so emotional, let the tears flow freely as he watched his beautiful bride walk down the aisle.

Three years later, the couple is stronger than ever. We wish this little family all the happiness as they prepare to welcome a new baby into the world next year.
