In June Malcolm-Jamal Warner and his partner, welcomed their first child. The news was revealed via the mother of his ex-girlfriend, Michelle Thomas, who passed away of cancer in 1998.

As The New York Daily News reported, the actor was completely mum on his girlfriend and baby, but sources say she’s a Connecticut-based attorney.

After the news was reported, the actor posted a photo of him holding the pregnant belly of his partner with the caption, “Yep…” Subtly confirming the news, fans were happy for the 46-year-old. 

Since then, he’s shared two posts of the baby, not giving away too much information other than being ecstatic about fatherhood. “Peaceful time with family takes on a whole new meaning now…,” he said in a most recent post, holding the baby while sleeping.

Warner isn’t the only ‘Cosby’ kid to welcome a child recently. In January, Keshia Knight Pulliam gave birth to her first child, Ella Grace with estranged husband Ed Hartwell.
