Back in November, Ray J and wife Princess Love shared that they have a little bundle of joy on the way. Now, the singer has confirmed that the couple is expecting a baby girl.

TMZ caught up with the two while they were out and about in Manhattan. While talking to paparazzi about impending fatherhood, the singer let slip that the pair will be welcoming a baby girl. 

Ray J, who told paps he’s not entirely sure how to change a diaper, plans to be a hands-on dad and to learn things quickly. “I’m having a girl, so I don’t want nobody even getting close to my daughter.”

The singer says he has no plans to hire a nanny or any outside help because he and Princess Love will handle everything. “No nanny,” he told paps. “Wife is the nanny, she don’t want no nanny.”

Love told paps she’d ready to be a mom and has already been juggling the couple’s numerous pets. 

Touching on the reported tension between Ray J, Love, his sister Brandy and mother, Sonja Norwood, the singer told paps that his family will “get it together.” “Time heals everything.” 

Brandy and her mom skipped the couple’s baby shower after the pair reportedly exchanged words with Love over cryptic messages the mom-to-be shared online, which Brandy and Sonja believed to be shade aimed at Ray J. 

Hopefully, Ray J’s words are true and time brings the family back together.
