It's a Boy: Kimora Lee Announces Baby Birth on Twitter

Fashion maven Kimora Lee Simmons and two-time Oscar nominee Djimon Hounsou are the parents of a baby boy.

The ex-wife of hip-hop mogul Russell Simmons announced the birth on Twitter early Saturday morning.

"It's a boy! Thanks to everyone out there for all your well wishes! More to come. Thank God. And God Bless! Kimora + Djimon Love & Light, KLS," her tweets read.

To verify the authenticity of the Twitter alert, her rep released a statement confirming the birth."Kimora and Djimon's son was born Saturday morning, May 30th," said her publicist. The 34-year-old CEO of Baby Phat did not release the baby's name, but she did post a photo of herself in the hospital bed on TwitPic.com.

Kimora Lee Simmons Simmons and Hounsou have been romantically linked since March 2007. Though there were rumors that the couple quietly wed earlier this year, the pair has never confirmed the reports.

The former model is also the subject of her own Style Network reality series, 'Kimora: Life in the Fab Lane.' She has two daughters, Ming Lee, 9, and Aoki Lee, 6, from her seven-year marriage to Simmons.
