    Teddy Swims has become a dad

    The 32-year-old music star has revealed via social media that his girlfriend, Raiche Wright, gave birth to a baby boy on Monday (23.06.25).


    Alongside a series of black-and-white images of their newborn son, Teddy and Raiche said in a joint Instagram post: "6.23.25 We love you lil man (sic)"

    Raiche also took to her Instagram Story to express her happiness.

    She wrote: "He's perfect and my heart is exploding! [heart and rose emojis] (sic)"

    The loved-up couple actually announced their pregnancy via a social media post in January.

    At the time, they posted a shot of themselves on a beach, with Teddy cradling Raiche's baby bump.

    They captioned the image: "We can't wait to meet you baby [heart and stars emojis] (sic)"

    Teddy subsequently discussed their pregnancy during an appearance on The Kelly Clarkson Show.

    The music star first suspected something when they were leaving Austin City Limits and they noticed something unusual.

    He explained: "She was complaining of things that we thought were period symptoms. And I was like, these have been going on for a while, maybe we should check this out.

    "And so we're in our hotel the next day, I don't remember where we're off. And weirdly, as we're driving through Austin, she'd never been to a Buc-ee's before, which is my favourite place in the whole world. And so I was like, you gotta go. Half my wardrobe is Buc-ee's."

    The couple actually bought some adult onsies and went to eat at Chili's, the restaurant chain, before Raiche took a pregnancy test.

    Teddy remembered that they were both "freaking out" after Raiche returned a positive pregnancy test.

    He recalled: "We're eating Chili's in our onesies, we go home and we do the test. We do like three of them and it's like, immediately yes you're pregnant. And so we're freaking out, we're finding this out in our Buc-ee's.

    "Until we find a name, we're just calling boy or girl 'Baby Buc-ee.' I'm going to call it Buc-ee, I don't care what the name is."
