‘She’s Daddy’s Girl for Sure’: Fantasia and Her Husband Kendall Taylor Give First Look at Their Baby Girl

Fantasia and her husband, Kendall Taylor, are ready to show off their baby girl Keziah London Taylor.

On Tuesday, Aug. 24, the couple got their daughter picture-perfect ready for her debut on her own Instagram account, dressing her up in a long-sleeved blue pattern dress, white baby booties, and a white bow to accessorize the outfit.

The caption on the photo was written as if the 3-month-old had written it herself. It says, “Finally! Mommy and Daddy Let Me Come Out And Play.” But the photos did not stop there, Fantasia and her husband also uploaded their own posts of their daughter. The “American Idol” winner’s photo showed her daughter sitting in the lap of a purple oversized stuffed animal, while Kendall opted to post a short video of his “Angelic” baby girl sleeping.

Fantasia is wishing she can slow down time, writing, “Singing 🗣 Pretty Brown Eyes You Now Are 3 Months Quit Breaking My Hearrrrrrt🎶 Stop Growing🎵 Cause It’s Breaking My Heart @keziahlondontaylor,” in the caption.

Fans rejoiced over the baby girl’s beauty. One said, “Omg she’s perfect,” and another wrote, “She is soooo beautiful ❤️❤️❤️❤️.” Someone else said they believed Keziah resembled her father. “Awwwwww, she’s Daddy’s girl for sure! How beautiful! Congratulations on your little princess 👑🌹💐🥰🤗,” they wrote.

The Taylors’ journey to getting their first child together has been an experience that’s taken three years, according to the couple. The couple was getting suggestions about IVF, and even had a health scare where the doctor told the singer that one of her fallopian tubes were closed. After mutually deciding to let things happen naturally, Fantasia woke up one morning and realized “Um, something’s different.” She took six pregnancy tests, which all came out positive, before deciding to share the news with her husband.

The couple welcomed their baby girl in May just seven months into the pregnancy. However, because of the early birth of the child, she had to stay in the neonatal intensive care unit before being approved to go home.

Fantasia has two other children Zion and Dallas, while Kendall has an adult son.

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

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 in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones 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.
