He and his wife Crystal welcomed their third child last week.

‘Born at 11:11 am (lucky lil lady) 5 lbs 7 oz of perfection My world is finally complete,’ Crystal captioned a photo from the delivery room.

In March, Ne-Yo admitted Crystal stopped him from getting a vasectomy before they got pregnant with their third child.

The So Sick hitmaker told TooFab: ‘She decided that she doesn’t want any more children, and I’m following her lead on that … No, no , no – not getting the surgery. 

‘Now mind you … my plan was to get the surgery, but she was like, ‘No, no, no, don’t get the surgery because if we ever decide we do want anymore kids then we can’t do it.’ I’m like, ‘You just said you didn’t want more kids?’

‘And she was like, ‘I don’t want no more kids right now, but what if I want some…’ I’m like, ‘Oh.’ So this last one is the plan, and then if God decides he wants us to have some more, I guess we’ll have some more.’
