Vanessa Morgan has named her baby girl Kaia Autumn Skye

Alongside a series of professional photographs of the couple and baby Kaia, including her teeny feet, Vanessa gushed on Instagram: "Kaia Autumn Skye. Born July 27th. Been enjoying all the baby snuggles these past 3 weeks with our angel. Beyond Grateful."

The actress only announced her pregnancy just weeks before the arrival.

She wrote on Instagram six weeks ago: "So in love with this man, our family of 4 coming this month. Surprise! Thank you GOD!"

The first time round, Vanessa also announced her pregnancy news via Instagram, but admitted that she had been considering keeping the whole thing out of the public eye.

She said: "Was debating keeping this part of my life hidden but I knew people would see pictures eventually with my belly I wanted you guys to hear it from me. I do want to keep this chapter of my life private but did want to be the first to share the news.

"I am overjoyed to be welcoming my baby boy into the world this January. It's almost like everything I thought mattered in this life has completely changed...We're here for such a greater purpose and life is so precious. (sic)"

Vanessa and Michael announced via a representative that they had split up, just days after sharing that their little boy was on the way.

The 'Finding Carter' star did not go into detail about why she and Michael split, but noted at the time she had to "mourn the future" she had planned for the pair of them.

She said: "It doesn't always go as planned and it's the journey. It ended up being the biggest blessing of my life, but in the moment, it's so painful. You mourn the future that never happened. You mourn the fantasy that you created, and that wasn't the reality that was the best alignment for me."

Despite their split, Michael was present at the birth and an insider insisted that "all was well" amid the situation.

A source told E! News at the time: "Vanessa had the baby, and Michael is with her as well. They're both thrilled."
