Congratulations are in order for “Love and Hip Hop: Hollywood” couple Ray J Norwood and his wife Princess Love as they expect their second child together.
That’s right! The pair are expanding their family and seem happier than ever. Ray J, 38, took to Instagram Sunday evening and posted a chain of adorable family photos together featuring their 15-month-old daughter Melody Love. In one image, the “One Wish” singer, his wife and toddler were lounging on a swan float, while the soon-to-be mother of two showed off her protruding belly in form-fitting swimsuit.
The excited second-time father-to-be wrote in his photo caption, “Baby #2 on the way! @MelodyLoveNorwood your about to be a big sister! #Godisthegreatest @princesslove.”
The expectant mother followed up her husband’s post with more photos of their family lolling in bed together while coordinating in white attire. Baby Melody wore a T-shirt that read, “Big Sis.”
“Somebody’s gonna be a big sis 👶🏽🍼 New addition arriving Jan 2020 @melodylovenorwood @rayj#2under2 #Blessed,” Princess, additionally, shared on her Instagram.
Social media users were shocked but flooded the couple with congratulations.
“Omg I wasn’t expecting that one! I’m so excited for the Norwood family. Yay!!! Congrats to all of you @rayj@princesslove 🎉😘”
“Congratulations!! I am beyond thrilled for you. GOD bless you and your family and may he cover you with His love and protection!!❤”
“We were blinded 😊 What wonderful news, love you guys 💕 so happy for you both congratulation!!!”
“Oh wow that’s huge! So happy for you both. 🙏 for a healthy Beautiful baby”
In March, Ray. J expressed that he desired to grow his family.
“I want one more right now. I’m trying right now, I’m trying to get one in and hopefully we can have another by April, if it happens,” he told US Weekly at the 2019 Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards. “They could be friends and protect each other, like my sister and myself.”
The couple tied the knot in 2016 after years of dating off and on. The pair didn’t reveal Princess’ first pregnancy with Melody until her second trimester in 2017 due to their struggles with trying to conceive the first time.
“It was special, because we was tryin’ for a while,” the singer told “The Real” at the time. “It’s not as easy as people think. Some people go on tour and get everybody pregnant. But for me, it was love and we took our time.”
