A representative for Shemar first announced the baby's arrival on Tuesday. The rep told PEOPLE magazine, "Shemar Moore and his partner, Jesiree Dizon, are happy to announce the birth of their baby girl. The family is very happy and healthy."
Earlier this month, "The Young and the Restless" alum confirmed that he's going to be first-time father at age 52. "Shemar Moore is about to be a daddy," he announced on "The Jennifer Hudson Show".. "I was worried for a while that maybe that ship had sailed kinda thing. God had my back. Things lined up," he gushingly added about being a first-time father at a quite late age. "It's going to be the best part of [my life]. My life is pretty grand but I know that ... once I get this experience, I'll be able to go to heaven whole."
He noted that the baby was due on the third anniversary of his late mom Marylin Joan Wilson-Moore's death. "I'm sorry she can't be here," he said of the woman he's called his "mother, best friend and partner in crime." He said this child will make "one of her dreams come true."
Shemar also shared the news via Instagram. "Today is the day. You know your boy's got butterflies," he said in a video. "Today is a special day. This is a legendary day. Today, your boy Shemar Motherf**king Moore…is going to find out if he's going to be a daddy to a little girl or a little boy."
During the party, a helicopter was flying, spreading pink smoke that confirmed Shemar and Jesiree are expecting a baby girl. "I honestly just want whatever is healthy, happy like [Moore] says 10 fingers, 10 toes," the pregnant actress told the camera. "I'm just so excited for this portion of our life together, and it's going to be amazing."
While the baby girl is the first for Shemar, Jesiree has two other children, Kaiden, 16, and Charli, 5, from previous relationships. She shares her daughter with actor Stephen Bishop.
