Post Malone is going to be a dad — and “now they always say congratulations!”
Billboard confirmed on Wednesday (May 3) that the “Circles” singer is expecting his a child with his mystery longtime girlfriend. According to TMZ, who first reported the news, the couple celebrated the happy occasion with a small, private party in Southern California over the weekend.
“I’m excited for this next chapter in my life, I’m the happiest I’ve ever been, and for since I could remember I was sad,” Post told TMZ. “Time to take care of my body and my family and friends, and spread as much love as we can every day.”
