Diplo has finally confirmed he welcomed a baby in secret with model Jevon King and revealed he has yet to meet his newborn son. The DJ, 41, became a dad for the third time back in March when King gave birth to their little boy Pace.

She confirmed the new arrival at the time, but didn't name the father and Diplo stayed silent. However, he has now gone public with his happy news - sharing a picture of former beauty queen King cradling their little boy in a sweet Mother's Day post on Instagram.

Diplo - real name Thomas Pentz - shared a snap of King holding their newborn along with a photo of his ex-girlfriend Kathryn Lockhart with their two sons, and a throwback of his own mother.

He wrote: "Thanks for giving me life and helping me create it - the three strongest mothers in the world..

He went on to add that he has yet to meet his little boy because King gave birth during the coronavirus lockdown.

Diplo wrote: "His name is Pace, he and his mommy are super healthy and happy and I'm going to meet them as soon as we turn a corner on this world shutdown."

Diplo is dad to 10-year-old son Lockett and Lazer, six, with his ex-Lockhart. He recently explained that he's having to isolate away from his boys during the coronavirus pandemic. "This hurts because I miss them so much they are what makes me wake up every day and live and breath, they are my ultimate joy, but this is my sacrifice to make sure everyone around me is safe."
