AceShowbiz - Donald Glover is now a father of two. The "Atlanta" star, who surprised fans when he casually announced that his girlfriend Michelle was pregnant with their second child together while accepting his second major award at last year's Emmys, has revealed that the baby has been born
Speaking to ET's Leanne Aguilera at TCA press tour on Friday, January 5, Donald first said of Michelle, "She's great. She's good. Baby's born, so she's happier now." The 34-year-old Emmy-winning rapper/writer/actor then confirmed that his lady love had indeed given birth.
The exciting news came four months after Donald announced his girlfriend's second pregnancy at the 69th annual Prmetime Emmy Awards last September, where he took home two Emmys for his work on "Atlanta". In his acceptance speech, the actor thanked Michelle for loving him, before he nonchalantly revealed they were expecting their second child together.
"I want to thank Michelle, my partner, you love me even with how crazy I get," he said at the event hosted by Stephen Colbert. "I want to thank my baby, my son, for just being the joy in my life," the actor continued, before adding, "I want to thank my unborn son - we're listening to Stevie [Wonder] tonight."
Donald is known for being notoriously private. The "Spider-Man: Homecoming" actor, who's also a Grammy-nominated rapper under the moniker Childish Gambino, and Michelle welcomed their first child in early 2016.
However, it was not until a year later that he revealed his first child is a boy while delivering his acceptance speech at the 2017 Golden Globes, where he won Best Actor in a Comedy Series for his leading role on "Atlanta". He later revealed at the Governors Ball Music Festival in June that his son's name is Legend.
Donald has been busy working on his upcoming projects, including Han Solo movie, in which he stars as Lando Calrissian, and Disney's upcoming live-action "The Lion King (2019)", where he will lend his voice to Simba. "Solo: A Star Wars Story", starring Alden Ehrenreich as young Han Solo, is set for a May 25, 2018 release in the United States, while the live-action re-imagining of the 1994 classic animated film is due out the next year on July 19.
In addition to his big-screen projects, fans can look forward to Donald performing at this year's Grammys on January 28. He records and performs using his moniker.
