Khloe Kardashian did not meet his best friend Malika Haqq’s baby for fear of the coronavirus, it was reported. Malika Haqq, , welcomed her first child on Saturday, a boy she named Ace Flores.
The star shares Ace with her ex-boyfriend O.T. Genasis – and although Khloe Kardashian has been present throughout Malika’s pregnancy, she has not yet met the newborn due to social distance.
A shared source: “Khloe Kardashian has been FaceTiming with Malika Haqq and her baby, but has not seen them in person. “With everything that is happening, the priority is, of course, to keep both Malika Haqq and her baby healthy.”
But that doesn’t mean Ace is left without, as the insider added to PEOPLE: “Everyone, including Kylie and Kourtney, sent gifts. Everyone is hoping to meet the baby in person soon.” Malika Haqq announced Ace’s birth on Instagram earlier this week, sharing a photo of him, O.T., and Ace’s hands overlapping, she wrote: “Ace Flores 3.14.2020”.
Khloe Kardashian commented at the time: “My beautiful beautiful grandson!!!! Ace, we’ve been waiting for you”. His sister Kim Kardashian added, “He’s perfect!!!!! We can’t wait to meet him! I love you so much!!!!” And Kourtney wrote, “Life is good, I can’t wait to smell it.
Malika Haqq announced that she was expecting her first child in September 2019, but initially kept her dad’s identity a secret.
At that time she explained it: “I’m leaving him out of this, just for now. My baby was made in love and this is a fact that will manifest itself later”.
Malika Haqq then revealed her father during an emotional speech at Khloe’s baby shower, where she mentioned the 32-year-old rapper with his real name, Odis.
In the shared clip about Khloe’s story on Instagram, she said, “I am incredibly grateful to Odis Flores for my baby.
After fans speculated that the two were back on the air after the baby’s party, the first time mom assured that she was still “single”.
She wrote last month: “Relationships don’t always work out the way we hoped, but between love and friendship we have created a baby that will come very soon.
I’ve been single for the last 8 months, but I’m absolutely not alone”.
OT and I have attended every doctor’s appointment together and overall we loved our son, anticipating his arrival”.
My priority in the last few months has been to feed and protect my unborn baby.
Our baby would not be who he is without his father and I thank God for the spirit that grows inside me. The only thing that matters is that we are the parents of Baby Flores”.
The first couple started dating in 2017, but stopped last year.
