Another bundle of joy has arrived! Real Housewives of Atlanta star Eva Marcille welcomed her second child, a boy named Maverick, with husband Michael Sterling on Friday, September 27.
US Weekly confirmed Eva, 34, and Michael’s joyous baby news on Saturday, September 28.
The former America’s Next Top Model winner first confirmed that she was expecting in May 2019. “Michael and I couldn’t be more excited to announce baby No. 3 is on board!” she revealed to PEOPLE.
Eva welcomed their first son together, a boy named Michael Todd Sterling Jr., on April 13, 2018. She also has a 5-year-old daughter named Marley with ex Kevin McCall.
“Looks like little Michael Jr. is going from the baby to the middle child, and Marley will be the boss of them all!” she added while talking with PEOPLE about her third pregnancy.

“It’s amazing that God shared his most amazing superpower with us: the power to create and give life,” Michael said during the interview. “I count it a great blessing to grow our family with the love of my life, Eva Marcille Sterling, and we look forward to welcoming another generation of hope into this world.”
The RHOA star may have spilled the beans about her pregnancy long before announcing it in May. “I know we're not the only ones who got pregnant after that Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper performance,” she joked on Dish Nation on February 27 about them belting out “Shallow” at the 91st Academy Awards. “Baby is in utero.”
Eva and Michael wed in October 2018, months after she gave birth to Michael Jr. She was seen stressing about their nuptials on multiple RHOA episodes during the show’s 11th season.
Their wedding wasn’t exactly the cheapest. “I was naive enough to think that I can plan a wedding for $80 to $100,000,” she told ESSENCE in December 2018. “I spent well over $350,000.
Eva returns for another season of RHOA on Sunday, November 3, alongside NeNe Leakes, Cynthia Bailey, Kandi Burruss, Kenya Moore and Porsha Williams. The “Gone with The Wind Fabulous” songstress is back after she departed the Bravo series at the end of season 10.
