Khloe Kardashian‘s best friend Malika Haqq welcomed her son Ace into the world last Saturday.

In the candid snapshot, presumably taken shortly after his birth, baby Ace can be seen wrapped in a furry, light gray blanket.
His tiny hands were concealed beneath a pair of white mittens in order to prevent the newborn from unintentionally scratching his face.
Malika officially announced Ace’s birth to the world on Monday in an Instagram post where the newborn’s hand could be seen resting atop the hands of his mother and father.
A day after the birth announcement, bestie Khloe took to the post’s comment section, where she marveled over her ‘nephew.’

‘My beautiful beautiful nephew! We have been waiting for you,’ wrote the 35-year-old reality star.
Malika also received congratulatory comments from Khloé’s half-sisters Kylie and Kendall Jenner, as well as her big sisters Kourtney and Kim.
Last month, Khloe threw a lavish baby shower for Malika, who also has a twin sister Khadijah.
O.T. was also at the event and in an Instagram post, the mom-to-be shared that the rapper is fully involved.

Malika and O.T. ended their relationship in June of 2019 after dating on and off for two years, and in September Malika announced she was expecting their baby.
‘Relationships don’t always work out the way we would hope but between love & friendship we have created a baby boy that will be here very soon,’ she wrote.
‘I’ve been single the last 8 months but I am in no way alone. OT and I have attended every doctors apt and over all loved on our son together while anticipating his arrival.’

Since announcing her pregnancy in September, the former Disney actress has used social media as a means of documenting her journey.
She has not shied away from posting sexy photos of herself, including posing nude and in her underwear, displaying her growing baby bump.
She’s also revealed that she had booked a ‘post pregnancy makeover’ with Beverly Hills plastic surgeon Dr. Jason Diamond.
