 Jersey Shore star Ronnie Ortiz Magrois officially a dad! Ronnie and his girlfriend, Jen Harley gave birth to a baby girl on Tuesday (April 3), E! confirmed. A source close to the reality star told the magazine that Ronnie is "over the moon." Fans speculated that Jen's due date was somewhere around the corner as Ronnie skipped the London premiere of MTV's reunion series 'Jersey Shore Family Vacation'.

At the same time, Jen also took to her Instagram on Monday (April 2) and shared a story in which she documented her visit to the hospital. "Ron lands at seven so we have five hours," with her best friend supporting her. "I'm feeling very very uncomfortable," she continued. Fortunately, things turned out to fall into piece and Jen gave birth to a beautiful daughter. 

Back in December, Ronnie and Jen had surprised their fans by announcing the pregnancy. Talking to US Weekly, Ronnie confessed that he loved the fact that he was going to have a baby girl. He joked by saying “every guy wants a boy,” but things for him are different as he’s “used to being around girls.” He then added that he has many sisters and has hung out with them a lot. 

He even revealed how he was taking parenting advice from his costars Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi, Paul “Pauly D” Delvecchio and Jenni “JWoww” Farley. “They all went through different experiences, which is great,” he told the magazine. Ever since the couple announced the pregnancy news, they haven't stopped documenting their pregnancy journey.

Just last month the pair enjoyed "the most amazing" which happened in Las Vegas. Jen shared a picture on her Instagram and thanked her friends and loved ones for being by their side during their journey. "We are so thankful to have such good friends and family to come support us and fly in from all over the country!" Jen wrote on Instagram. "Special thanks to @jennamarie018 my BFF for planning this for4 months @ally.kluth for helping her, @chas_face For bringing @smileboxlv That was so much fun we have the most amazing pics!"

Meanwhile, Ronnie is aware that things are going to change in the house and his party days are no more. "#StayTuned #ChuggingRightFromTheBottleUntilIPassOut #PartyAtTheCrib3am #BabyShowershenanigans," he recently joked on Instagram. "Things in life never go as planned or happen the way you expect it! #BestFriend #MyLife #LoveHer." Congratulations to the couple on the big news!
