Ashley Cain has revealed he's expecting his third child three years after the death of his daughter Azaylia.
Azaylia, who he welcomed with his ex-partner Safiyya Vorajee, 36, tragically passed away from leukaemia in April 2021 at the age of eight months.
He went on to welcome son Aliyas with a new partner in January this year. He later revealed that he and the mystery woman were no longer together romantically but that they were happily co-parenting.
It is not known if the mother of his unborn third child is the same woman. MailOnline has contacted Ashley's representatives for comment.
Ashley announced his baby news on Instagram on Thursday, revealing he was expecting a baby boy and sharing his joy that there was good news coming after 'all the heartache.'
Alongside pictures of son Aliyas, and bizarrely a slew of snaps of his purple Lamborghini, he wrote: '“Another One” **DJ Khaled Voice**.
'My little girl will soon have another little brother to watch over, and my little boy will not only be a baby brother but a big brother too.'

Ashley continued: 'With all the heartache I’ve been through, I’m truly grateful that I can really start counting my blessings again!
'Now, it’s time to head to two of the most dangerous places in the world to film the final two episodes of my brand new series.
'So for now, I’m sad to say goodbye, but I look forward to seeing you both soon, my little men. And to my guardian angel, I’ll never ever be without you because I can feel your presence in every step I take.
'Life has a way of throwing challenges our way, but it also blesses us with moments that fill our hearts with immense joy. Here’s to the journey ahead and the beautiful souls who make it'.
Ashley has not disclosed the mother of his 10-month-old son Aliyas but previously opened up about their 'beautiful' co-parenting relationship.
He told MailOnline: 'We're keeping as friends, and we are co-parenting. We have a very good relationship, so that's how it is staying.
'It's been beautiful, really to be able to get on, not amicably, but so well, even better, we both have Aliyas's best interests in heart.
'We both have love and respect for each other. And we both just want to be the best parents we can. And not only enjoy our son, but let us and enjoy the most of us and the most of life.
'So we're doing everything. It's very comfortable. It's very easy. And we make the best decisions based on our son, so great.'

Last month, Ashley revealed the trauma over his daughter Azaylia's death will 'never leave' him.
Former footballer Ashley and his ex Safiyya raised more than £1.5million to fund Azaylia's specialist treatment before her death and later put any unspent money into The Azaylia Foundation which aims to support families and provide memorable experiences for children fighting cancer.
