Big Sean said he is looking forward to fatherhood after photographs of Jhene Aiko visibly pregnant were leaked.

Sean Michael Leonard Anderson, known professionally as Big Sean, has been dating longtime girlfriend Jhene on and off since 2016.

The dynamite celebrity duo were spotted walking throughout Beverly Hills on Saturday, where the singer was seen sporting a clear baby bump. Jhene has since confirmed the news with a subtle Instagram post, and father-to-be Sean took to his Instagram Story with his own statement.

The rapper shared a message on his story to address the photos and let his followers know how he was feeling.

“Whole new motivation foreal! Very grateful God continues to bless us, Thank You,” Sean wrote on the first story. On the next one, he simply stated, “Can’t wait to be a dad.”

Although Jhene currently has a 13-year-old daughter with singer O’Ryan, this is her and Big Sean’s first child together.

“The couple is overjoyed and looks forward to this next chapter,” one of Aiko’s representatives told People.
