Criminal Minds star Shemar Moore has welcomed his first child with girlfriend Jesiree Dizon.

The 52-year-old surprised fans with the news that he was set to become a dad earlier this month, during an appearance on the Jennifer Hudson Show.

The lovebirds have now introduced a baby girl, his rep has confirmed.

‘Shemar Moore and his partner, Jesiree Dizon, are happy to announce the birth of their baby girl,’ they told People Magazine.

‘The family is very happy and healthy.’

They have yet to share a picture of their daughter’s face or reveal her name.

The new arrival marks Shemar’s first child while model Jesiree, 39, is also mom to a son and a daughter from previous relationships.

Taking to Instagram, the Derek Morgan favorite confirmed their happy news, sharing a screenshot of an article about their baby girl.

‘Ya boy is officially a Dad!!! Dreams come true!! The rest of my life is here,’ he wrote.

Right on cue, delighted fans flooded the post with supportive messages for the couple.

One wrote: ‘I’m sooo happpppy for youuuu! AWWW. I know your heart is FULL.

‘Congratulations, may this new chapter in your journey be full of joy, amusement, patience, and LOVE [sic].’

As an Instagram user added: ‘Congratulations to you both. Being a parent is the best job in the world.’

Shemar later uploaded a gender reveal party video on social media, introducing fans to Jesiree for the first time – after keeping their romance firmly private.

At the beginning of the year, he explained that their newborn had a poignant due date, which coincided with the anniversary of his mother’s death – however the little one arrived earlier than planned.

‘I’m Shemar Moore, 52½ years old,’ he told Jennifer Hudson during an appearance on her series. ‘My mother is in heaven, right now it’ll be the three-year anniversary on February 8.

‘And on February 8, I’m going to make one of her dreams come true because, in real life, Shemar Moore is about to be a daddy.

‘I’m so excited. I’m sorry she can’t be here. I was worried for a while that it was a “that ship has sailed” kind of thing but God had my back, and things lined up.

‘It’s going to be the best part of… My life is already pretty grand, but I know whenever God does call my name, once I get this experience, I’ll be able to go to heaven whole.’
