Taking to Twitter, Diddy – real name Sean Combs – wrote: ‘I’m so blessed to welcome my baby girl Love Sean Combs to the world.

The news surprised Diddy’s fans and followers, as he had not publicly announced he was expecting another child.
It is so far unclear when the baby was born, or who the mother is, as while he has been linked to musician Yung Miami there has been no suggestion of a pregnancy.
With the new arrival, Diddy has seven children, having welcomed the previous five with three different women, and adopted the son of former girlfriend, the late Kim Porter.
