Keke Wyatt has a new bundle of joy.

On Friday, the singer posted a photo of herself on Instagram in a hospital bed with the caption, “Long day.” The singer and reality star gave birth to her eighth child after making the announcement of her pregnancy in April.

In September Wyatt shared that Michael Jamar Ford, her husband of seven years, asked for a divorce while she was eight months pregnant. 

“Wanna know something America,” she began, “when you eight months pregnant, you got a child sick —in and out of the hospital and your husband got the nerve to tell you that he wants a divorce, because he says that you’re an emotional wreck.” 

“He says from the very beginning you never trusted me and all that kinda stuff like. Telling other people, other women, that we getting a divorce… I am so done with Michael Jamar. Y’all can have him and roast his ass, I don’t care.”

In recent weeks, Wyatt has posted photos of Ford with their children, but there’s no word on reconciliation.
