Lauryn Hill Gives Birth To Baby Boy Amidst Paternity Rumors

Update-Lauryn Hill has given birth to a baby boy, her sixth child, after only announcing the news in March of this year. Blackcelebkids have confirmed the news of Lauryn Hill given birth to a baby boy on Saturday (7.23.11). Reportedly the baby was born with the umbilical cord wrapped around his neck, however mom and baby are OK. A continued issue lingers around the paternity of Lauryn’s child. Rohan Marley fathered 5 children with the songstress but publicly denied the paternity of Lauryn’s new born couple months ago. Rohan has since claimed his words were taken out of context and that he loves and respects the mother of his children. Weeks later the couple and their brood of children were spotted catching a Broadway play and all things appeared back to normal.

However, additional reports have surfaced to further suggest that Lauryn and Rohan may have broken things off for sometime and both parties may have moved on. Brazilian model Isabeli Fontana started a fire storm when she posted her love for Rohan Marley on Twitter with a picture of the two together! “I’m in love with @Romarley’s heart.”

Somewhere we’re hoping that the media has this one wrong and Lauryn Hill and Rohan Marley has this all figured out as Rohan suggested in his recent tweets: “Ms. Hill is the mother of my children, whom I have a tremendous amount of love and respect for. I would never do that.

“The nature of our relationship something we don’t expect people who spread gossip for a living to fully understand.”

Looking forward to seeing my baby pictures! Congrats to Lauryn Hill and her family!

Independent journalism still matters.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
