After months of waiting for their new bundle of joy, Shakira and Gerard Piqué welcomed their baby boy on Tuesday (January 22)!
The couple have named him Milan Piqué Mebarak and according to the Columbian singer’s website, both mommy and her 6lbs baby are in excellent health.
Moments before giving birth and when in labour, Shakira tweeted out to her friends for a little encouragement. Saying, “I’d like to ask you all to accompany me in your prayers on this very important day of my life. Shak.”
In the online post, the 35-year-old singer explained that the name of their child, Milan meant dear, loving and gracious in Slavic, and in Ancient Roman it meant, eager and laborious.
To tie in with the good new, they also announced that like his footballer father, Milan became a member of FC Barcelona at birth.
