Diplo admits he is yet to meet his two-month-old son Pace due to the coronavirus
DIPLO has revealed that he still hasn’t met his newborn son Pace two months after his birth due to coronavirus.
Yesterday, the electronic record producer revealed he had welcomed his third child and first with the Trinidadian beauty queen Jevon King in a heartfelt Instagram post.
Despite welcoming his new bundle of joy, the 41-year-old explained he has yet to meet his little boy, who arrived in March, and wrote on Instagram: "So I had an entire ass baby during quarantine.
"I was hesitant to post him because not only does he already had a better haircut than me...
"But also because I haven’t met him yet since we are separated by a million miles and closed borders.
"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."
The Major Lazer hitmaker also attached an adorable video of his little boy to the post, which Jevon could be heard saying in the background: "Miss you so much. I love you."
Diplo made the difficult decision to isolate himself separately from his sons after the coronavirus pandemic began.
The electronic music maker said he decided to quarantine away from them out of fear he could have passed the deadly virus to them from the hundreds of people he met in the weeks beforehand.
Yesterday, he confirmed that he welcomed his third child - and first with model Jevon.
The American DJ is already a father to sons Lockett, 10, and six-year-old Lazer, whom he shares with ex Kathryn Lockhart.
And the hitmaker, whose real name is Thomas Wesley Pentz, announced the glorious news yesterday on Instagram as he praised the women in his life on Mother’s Day.
Taking to the photo-sharing platform, the record producer shared three images; one with his mother Barbara Jean, another of his ex Kathryn and their two children, and a third of Jevon and their young son Pace.
Diplo's photo of Jevon saw her in a white robe cradling their little boy as she pressed her nose against the tot's.
Captioning the heartwarming snaps, he penned: "Thanks for giving me life and helping me create it - the three strongest mothers in the world.
"I'm still a work in progress but u have given me three perfect beautiful boys. I love you all [to] the moon and back."
Jevon welcomed their son on March 20, although it wasn't confirmed at the time that Diplo was the father.
Celebrating her first mother's day, Jevon shared her own post gushing over her son for the first time online.
She captioned the photo: "In the midst of all this chaos you’ve been my peace............ #myfirstmothersday #happymothersday #myson #myheartbeat #mylifeline."
"To my son, as your mother I promise to, love you, protect you, guide you, teach you, inspire you, provide for you and most importantly, pray for you. Love, Your Mom."
