On Tuesday, Fantasia Barrino gave birth to Dallas Xavier Barrino, weighing 7 lbs 9 ounces, at Presbyterian Hospital in Charlotte, North Carolina. In a statement, Fantasia said, "I feel so blessed that my son, Dallas Xavier, was born healthy, and is a wonderful new addition to our family. I thank all my fans for their well wishes and continued support." The "Truth Is" singer also has a 10-year-old daughter from a previous relationship.

Fantasia has not said who the father is, but she famously met Antwaun Cook at a T-Mobile store in 2010. Cook was married and she denied knowing him. However, Cook's wife filed a child-custody petition that included allegations of Fantasia having an affair with Antwaun. Allegedly, Antwaun Cook was by Fantasia's side during the birth.

Congratulations to Fantasia and family!
