Congratulations are in order for Ricky Martin and Jwan Yosef, who have expanded their family just in time for 2019.
The married couple announced the arrival of a baby daughter, beautiful Lucia Martin-Yosef, on Monday night, 10 years after the singer welcomed sons Matteo and Valentino by gestational surrogacy.
Ricky, 48, posted a picture of both dads holding the newborns tiny hands with just a glimpse at her little lips.
He wrote: We are beyond happy to announce that we have become parents to a beautiful and healthy baby girl, Lucia Martin-Yosef.
It has been a special time for us and we cant wait to see where this stellar baby will take us. Both her beautiful brothers and me and Jwan have fallen in love with Lucia.

Ricky, who married fiance Jwan in secret in January 2018, started his family back in December 2008 when a gestational surrogate carried his two boys.
Traditionally, a gestational carrier is in no way related to the child(ren) but shortly afterward Ricky dismissed claims he simply rented a womb and instead would give his life for the woman who welcomed his twins.

Its not yet clear whether Ricky and Jwan used the same gestational carrier to welcome daughter Lucia.
Sharing his pride for his modern family last year, Ricky said: I want people to look at me and see a family and say, “Theres nothing wrong with that.” Its part of my mission.
He added: Its part of my kids mission as well. My kids ask me about having two daddies and I tell them we are a part of a modern family. This is a beautiful sense of freedom.
