Report: Post Malone expecting his first child

Multiplatinum rapper and singer-songwriter Post Malone appeared to confirm Wednesday that he and his unnamed girlfriend are expecting their first child together.

"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," Malone, 26, born Austin Post in upstate Syracuse, told TMZ.com Wednesday in a story saying the couple had celebrated the pregnancy with a private party in Southern California over the weekend. "Time to take care of my body and my family and friends, and spread as much love as we can every day," he continued.

His fourth album, "Twelve Carat Toothache," is scheduled to drop June 3. Post Malone last played Long Island on Feb. 19, 2020, at Nassau Coliseum in Uniondale as part of his Runaway Tour.
