Alyssa shared the news with a lovely set of photos of her from behind as she cradled little Zen, who was wrapped up in a blanket in her arms.

The little boy appeared to be snoozing, and he had a thick head of hair already.

Alyssa shared a mix of elegant black-and-white photos and color snaps to share the news.


She was dressed elegantly for the low-key photoshoot in a backless black dress, with her hair styled up in a messy bun to showcase her dangling earrings.

Another black-and-white snap showed her caressing her very pregnant tummy in a silk dress for a mirror selfie.

‘I will love you for eternity – 6•23•21,’ she captioned the post, adding the baby’s birthdate.

A color version of the photos in her Insta Stories added that his name was Zen.

Nick had advertised Alyssa’s pregnancy in an earlier Instagram post on his own account, which she reposted to her Insta Stories for Father’s Day.

‘Celebrating you today,’ she captioned the picture of Nick reaching from behind her to caress her pregnant stomach while she leaned against a rocky outcropping on a beach.

Alyssa first announced her pregnancy in May, but it wasn’t until her Father’s Day post that she confirmed that the Wild ‘N Out host was the father.

Alyssa’s post received a torrent of congratulations from her followers.

Little is known of Nick’s relationship with Alyssa, though they were seen at the popular celebrity spot Nobu in October of 2020.

In May, she called him ‘a player’ in a social media exchange, suggesting he wasn’t committed, though things seem to be better between the two now.

But Nick will have his hands full with their child, as he has two other babies born just days earlier.

On June 14, his ex-girlfriend Abby De La Rosa, 30, gave birth to twin boys Zion Mixolydian and Zillion Heir.

Abby wrote on Instagram: ‘Our dearest sons: my miracle babies. Thank you for choosing me to be your Mommy. I know the Lord has destined me and prepared me for the gift of not one but two little angels…

‘I pray that God give you both the strength to walk brave and boldly in your individual truth just like your Daddy. That God bless you and your brother and guide you into living out your full purpose.’

Two sets of twins: Nick shares his oldest children, 10-year-old twins Monroe and Moroccan Scott, with his ex-wife Mariah Carey; seen in 2018 in Inglewood, Calif.
The twins arrived less than six months after his ex Brittany Bell gave birth to a daughter named Powerful Queen, now six months old, back in late December.

The pair also share an older son named Golden who is three years old.

Nick previously joked about not wanting to use contraceptives in a 2017 Howard Stern interview, so he may not be opposed to even more children in the future.

After speaking about his battle with the autoimmune disease Lupus, he said, ‘I’m probably gonna die sooner than most people… so let’s f*** all night! So why wear condoms? I might not be here tomorrow!’

The TV host was diagnosed with the disease in 2012 and was hospitalized for it in 2016.

In an interview with The Sun from June, Nick’s father James suggested his son’s many children were partly due to his anti-abortion beliefs.
