Chris Brown has reportedly welcomed his second child with his ex-girlfriend Ammika Harris.

According to TMZ , the singer's former partner has given birth to a baby boy, their first child together.

Chris, 30, is already dad to daughter Royalty, five, who he shares with his ex Nia Guzman.

It's thought that they've both subtly announced the birth on Instagram .

Chris shared a snap of himself wearing a hoodie with the word "Born" printed around the hood, and she posted on her Instagram story: "I was in love, when I first saw you."

The star also shared a black and white snap of himself smiling and looking down at something off camera, captioning it with a date "11-10-2019"

The US site first reported in August that Chris was expecting another baby.

Mirror Online has contacted Chris' representatives for comment.

Earlier this year, Chris furiously lashed out at women who were offended by his lyrics.

One fan said she felt discriminated against because of some of the things he's been singing about lately.

One woman took to Twitter to share some of his song lyrics for track Need A Stack that read: "Only wanna f**k black b*****s with the nice hair"

She said: "So, I've been a Chris Brown fan for atleast half of my life. IN HIS RECENT SONG FROM HIS ALBUM (Need A Stack) he said 'I only f**k black b*****s with the nice hair' and I just wanted to know, what is nice hair..?"

Another said: "So is this considered a 'preference' or 'discrimination'. Listen we all have preferences I'll give you that. Never will I discriminate against my own kind."

He ranted: "Weird ass angry people. Sincerely, from the bottom of my balls ... I DONT GIVE A F**K BOUT YALL NEGATIVE BOOTYFACE ASS B*****S.

I'm A Celebrity's Jacqueline Jossa in floods of tears over husband Dan Osborne - Mirror Online

Posted: 21 Nov 2019 01:06 PM PST

Jacqueline Jossa was left in floods of tears on tonight's I'm A Celebrity.

The former EastEnders star woke up feeling teary because she was missing her family.

Jacqueline, who bravely conquered her fears in Tuesday night's trial, admitted she couldn't bear to be apart from husband Dan Osborne and her young children.

She shares daughters Ella, four, and Mia, one, with former The Only Way Is Essex star Dan, who has been supporting his wife from home.

The Lauren Branning actress was reassured by fellow campmate Ian Wright, who comforted her when she started crying.

Talking in the Bush Telegraph, a tearful Jacqueline said: "I just woke up feeling a bit like 'mmmm' when you're just looking up at pure Jungle and you think 'wow, I'm so far away from home'."

While brushing his teeth, Ian came and sat down next to Jacqueline on her bed to give a shoulder to cry on.

The former footballer reassured her that it would be OK and she would not always be away from her family.

Talking in the Bush Telegraph, Ian said: "She misses her kids which is natural, she misses her husband, everything like that."

Later on, Jacqueline said: "In the BT, Jacqueline said "The thing is, everyone is missing their families, I just feel like it's too soon to be crying missing your family

"And we all smell so bad, we just stink, I stink, the smelliest I've ever been in my life."

Dan has warned this year's campmates that they could end up feeling the wrath of his "hangry" wife.

The former TOWIE star admitted Jacqueline can get a bit feisty if she has not eaten - so a diet of rice and beans could bring out another side of her.

Speaking exclusively to Mirror Online, Dan said: "I mean if it's a spider then I know she will find that hard, she can't even see one in the house without screaming!

"But I think as it goes on and the hungrier the camp get I think she will try really hard. Although if she hasn't eaten much she does get hangry so watch out campmates! But she will give it her all whatever!"

Dan, who is also dad to son Teddy, five, is holding down the fort at home while mummy endures life in the jungle.

Dan said: "I'm really proud of Jac going into the jungle – I really think she has already shown that she is up for anything. And the fact that she's been in Snake Rock first will prepare her for main camp, because let's face it, if she can survive in there main camp will be a breeze.

"We are missing her a lot, Mia is a bit too young to understand where mummy is, Ella knew she was going into the jungle but just thinks of it as Mummy going to work.

"But I've got Daddy daycare under control – it's how we work together when she's here anyway. We rely on each other to help so the other can go to work – just like any other married couple would.

"I go to work in my tattoo shop and she goes to work at her Academy so we try and work around each other for childcare. But we will be there waiting for her when she comes out wearing our Team Jac outfits!"

What Keanu Reeves dating 'age-appropriate' Alexandra Grant reveals about sexism and ageism in Hollywood - NBC News

Posted: 05 Nov 2019 12:00 AM PST

Actor Keanu Reeves was trending on social media after being photographed with a woman people are saying is "age-appropriate," drawing commentary about gender equity in Hollywood.

"The Matrix" actor has historically kept his dating life private, but after he was spotted holding hands with artist and philanthropist Alexandra Grant at the LAMCA Art + Film Gala on Saturday, rumors began taking hold.

Reeves, 55, and Grant, 46, have previously worked together as business partners, collaborating on the adult picture book "Ode to Happiness" (2011) and the photography collection "Shadows" (2016).

Though neither Reeves nor Grant have confirmed their relationship, initial reactions to the couple were positive. Reeves was trending on Twitter from Monday evening through Tuesday morning with many praising the actor for dating a woman who is close to his age.

"In this house we love, support and respect Keanu Reeves and Alexandra Grant," wrote one Twitter user, in a post that received nearly 24,000 likes and more than 5,000 retweets.

But despite eliciting cheery congratulations, the supposed couple is also sparking a conversation about the ways ageism and sexism in Hollywood persist — with many commenting on the absurdity of the actor trending for dating a woman nine years his junior.

Sharon Marcus, a professor of English and comparative literature at Columbia University and the author of "The Drama of Celebrity" told NBC News the conversation surrounding Reeves and Grant underscores the ways men are held to less stringent standards than women.

"If the ages were switched and Grant was 55 instead of 46, people would view the situation differently," Marcus said. "But now Keanu Reeves is getting treated as a king and prince for dating a woman older than 25, because men get graded on a curve and are praised for being moderately decent."

Marcus connects the effusive praise over Reeves' alleged relationship with the public understanding that celebrities — and especially celebrity men — can have whatever they want.

"We live in a society that understands success in material terms and views women as assets," Marcus said. "When a celebrity like Keanu Reeves goes out with an older woman who doesn't dye her hair, some people think he should be awarded a feminist Nobel Prize."

Upon hearing about Reeves and Grant, Montana Miller, an associate professor of pop culture at Bowling Green State University, immediately thought of a sketch from "Inside Amy Schumer" called "Last F---able Day." The sketch features Schumer, Tina Fey and Patricia Arquette celebrating Julia Louis Dreyfus' last day being viewed as an attractive woman in Hollywood.

"Once women reach their early 40s, they cross this threshold where they're no longer seen as f---able by the men in power in Hollywood," Miller told NBC News. "When I heard about Keanu's girlfriend, I thought of this sketch. This is exactly what people's reactions are about; the eagerness to cast away and discard older women in Hollywood as irrelevant."

This isn't the first time Reeves has been praised for his relationships with women. The actor made headlines earlier this year after a tweet of him posing with women and noticeably not touching their lower backs or waists, went viral.

Marcus said that people have become so accustomed to celebrities abusing their power that Reeves respecting a woman's personal space becomes notable.

Though some may differ over whether Reeves is worthy of the effusive praise he's received, Marcus said the reactions to his alleged relationship speak to ongoing discussions of power dynamics and relationships with younger partners in the #MeToo era.

Last month, Dennis Quaid, 65, drew controversy with his engagement to Laura Savoie, a 26-year-old doctoral student at the University of Texas. And Quaid is far from the only actor who's dated younger women. Comedian Dane Cook, 47, has received criticism for dating a 19-year-old, as has actor Leonardo DiCaprio, 44, for dating multiple women younger than 25.

While Miller thinks it's probably "better for Keanu to be dating someone 46 instead of 26," she hesitates to condemn all Hollywood men who date younger women.

"There is undoubtedly a cult of youth in Hollywood, but people have the right to date whoever they want," Miller said.

Others have pointed out the irony of Twitter users mocking Emma Watson for describing herself as "self-partnered" instead of single in a profile with British Vogue, while simultaneously praising Reeves' supposedly new relationship status.

"Emma Watson using the term 'self partnering' sounds like someone who is reframing negative thinking to gain a kinder relationship to her self," the comedian Sara Schaefer wrote. "But we should definitely tear her apart, can't let anyone get too cocky on Keanu Reeves Isn't Dating A 22 Year Old Bikini Model Day."
