Bravo’s The Real Housewives of Atlanta star Kandi Burruss and husband Todd Tucker are officially parents to a newborn baby boy!
LISTEN: Kandi Burruss Reveals She & Todd Tucker Are Having A Boy, Faced Pregnancy Scare?
She told E! News just hours ago that his name is “Ace.”
“I wanted something unique. When he becomes school age, hopefully he won’t have to worry about another person in the class having his name. More than that, Ace represents the number 1 and that of the highest quality and our baby Ace is definitely that! His middle name Wells was Todd’s mother’s last name. Using her last name as his middle name was our way of honoring her memory.”

The couple, along with their two daughters from previous relationships—Riley Burruss and Kaela—welcomed the infant on Wednesday after Kandi underwent a C-Section.
Tucker is definitely a proud father of the son he and Burruss hoped for. He shared a photo of him holding the precious child and gave his mother, Miss Sharon, who passed away about a year ago, a special message.
“Me and my little man!!! I wish my mom could be here to meet him. She would be so happy and proud of Kandi and I!!! God is good!!! All the time!!!”

His daughter Kaela made it clear she was absolutely ecstatic to welcome her first little brother hours before he arrived. Now that he is here, she also posted a photo of her and Riley smiling down at him. She kept the caption simple with the date of his birth and added, “love you forever and ever…”

posted the same photo and said she wished she and Tiny, who just announced her pregnancy on Christmas, would have taken a belly photo together.
I was happy to see my sis @majorgirl today. I'm mad we didn't get to do a pregnancy belly pic together. We should've thought of that before today! Lol! A photo posted by Kandi Burruss (@kandiburruss) on Jan 6, 2016 at 3:20pm PST
