Ne-Yo is going to be a daddy!

The R&B singer has confirmed that his girlfriend, Monyetta Shaw is pregnant with their first baby.

The baby is due on New Year’s Day and the couple, who are rumoured to be engaged, are delighted!

Ne-Yo confirmed the news with EbonyJet, he said: “I am 30 and I do have my first child on the way, and I’m very, very, very excited about that. It’s a New Year’s baby and I’m just in a really good place right now.”

I guess this puts the rumours about Ne-Yo being gay to bed. Congratulations to the couple!
