Ne-Yo has welcomed his fifth child.

The chart-toppers gorgeous wife, Crystal Smith, shared the happy news on her Instagram page on Friday and told that their new bundle of joy arrived four weeks early.

Crystal uploaded a snap of their new little girl on her chest as they rested in hospital with music star Ne-Yo - real name Shaffer Chimere Smith - beaming in the background.

The couple also told that they named their newborn Isabella Rose Smith and Crystal gushed that her "world is finally complete."

The doting mum penned: "Isabella Rose Smith!

"God said don’t make plans honey! She came 4 weeks early but right on time for mommy! Born at 11:11 am ( lucky lil lady) 5 lbs 7 oz of perfection My world is finally complete."

The couple already share Shaffer Chimere Jr, five, and Roman Alexander-Raj, two, while Ne-Yo also has Madilyn Grace, ten, and Mason Evan, nine, from a previous relationship.

In February, the smitten husband and wife told they were adding to their brood in an intimate video on Instagram.

The Masked Singer runner-up stroked wife Crystal Smith's baby bump in the footage and told that they're "overjoyed" to be expecting again.

"Overjoyed to announce...the family is expanding...#Number5 #5thandFinal #blessingsonblessings @crystalsmith You ready baby? Let's go!" he captioned the sweet clip.

Crystal shared the same clip on her own Instagram, playing This Is Why I Love You by artists MAJOR.

This year marks the couple's sixth anniversary after they tied the knot at Terranea Resort in Rancho Palos Verdes, California.

And he revealed last year that they were contemplating divorce - before quarantine brought them closer together and helped them heal as a couple.

He told The Talk: "Before the quarantine happened, we were definitely talking divorce, and the quarantine forced us to sit still, block out the noise from the world — you know the world can get very, very loud, and we tend to let the world's opinion mean more in certain situations than it should."

Ne-Yo added that thanks to "blatantly, painfully, brutally honest" conversations, the couple are now going stronger than ever.

"We're actually stronger now than we were before," he shared, "Now we feel like we can really talk to each other."
