Fantasia Barrino reportedly gave birth to a healthy baby boy yesterday.

According to sources, the American Idol checked into Presbyterian hospital in Charlotte, North Carolina Monday afternoon with her boyfriend Antwaun Cook.

Barrino’s wasn’t expected do deliver until December 29, but the baby was obviously anxious to get out and celebrate the holidays.

This is the singer’s second child, but her first child with Cook. She currently has a 10-year-old daughter Zion.

The name of her new baby, has yet to be released.

Fantasia has yet to formally acknowledge that Antwaun Cook is the father of her baby, but has received considerable backlash from her followers because Cook is still legally married to his estranged wife Paula.

The relationship was controversial because Paula Cook claims Barrino began an affair with her husband in the summer of 2009, while the couple were happily married.

In August, the 27-year-old R&B singer announced that she was pregnant during a concert in the parking lot of an apartment complex in Jacksonville, Florida. At the time, Fantasia said her pregnancy was a gift from God, “This child that I carry, God has given me this child. And I don’t have to hide it from none of y’all.”
