NE-YO and his wife Crystal have welcomed a son.

The singers son was born June 14 at 2:11pm in Saint Johns Health Centre in Santa Monica, California, People report.

Crystal announced the birth on her Instagram, along with his name, Roman Alexander-Raj Smith.

Hes so beautiful, she captioned the post.

Ne-Yo confessed that he feared the complications brought about by Crystals first pregnancy, which prompted an emergency caesarean section.

The complications that were could still exist, so theres a little bit of nervousness in there but above that, its more nervous excitement. I just want to meet him.

Ne-Yo, whose real name is Shaffer Smith, also has a 2-year-old son with his wife, called Shaffer Chimere Jr. Six-year-old Mason Evan and daughter Madilyn Grace are children from his previous relationship with Moyetta Shaw.

He married Crystal in February 2016, and she gave birth to Shaffer three weeks later.

The family had a royal-themed gender reveal party in Los Angeles hosted by Shaffers godmother, Anita Chatterjee.

Instead of asking for gifts, the pair instead asked partygoers to gift the Jenesse Centre, a non-profit organisation that helps to prevent domestic violence.
