NBA YoungBoy has announced that he and his wife, Jazlyn Mychelle Hayes, have welcomed the arrival of his 13th child.

On Sunday (February 22), the Baton Rouge rapper took to his Instagram Stories to share the good news, posting a video of himself sitting on a hospital bed with Hayes, who had just given birth to their third child.

"My gangsta had her baby," he says in the clip, while filming Hayes from the neck down eating some Starbucks food. He then asks her how she’s feeling, to which she replies: "Relieved."

The couple, who got married in a private ceremony back in January 2023, first announced that they were expecting a baby girl back in July. It’s their third child together following the birth of Alice in 2021, and Klemenza Tru in 2022.

He welcomed his first child, Kayden, with ex-girlfriend Nisha Keller, when he was 16. His sons Taylin and Kamiri were born months apart in 2017 to his former ex-girlfriends Trinia Loveless and Starr Dejanee. Dejanee had another son, Kamron, who YoungBoy decided to raise as his own.

PlaqueBoyMax quickly responded on a stream, telling YoungBoy that he's "still going to give [his] opinion," regardless on if he's a big fan. "I fuck with you. I’m not going to apologize. I didn’t do nothing wrong," he said.

"At the end of the day, I fuck with YB," Max continued. "I’m still going to play his music… YB, I fuck with you heavy. I just don’t like this song."
