The baby has been named Nia, and is the second child for Stevie Wonder, and his girlfriend Tomeeka Robyn Bracy.

Wonder, 64, had confirmed that he was soon to be father again during his appearance on The View last month, and had even joked saying "I got, how many, 22 kids?"

It was only then that he had revealed plans to name the girl Nia.

The Grammy winner was previously married to Syreeta Wright from 1970 to 1971 and Karen 'Kai' Millard Morris from 2001 until 2012.
