Tyler Perry, Girlfriend Gelila Bekele Welcome Baby Boy (UPDATE)

Tyler Perry and his girlfriend, model Gelila Bekele, may have secretly welcomed a baby boy over the Thanksgiving holiday. Bekele's sister has been gushing nonstop on Twitter about her new nephew, according to theybf.com. Back in September, Perry accidentally revealed that he and Bekele were expecting a son.

"I'm on a natural high right now and I don't think I'm coming down anytime soon," Anna tweeted on Nov. 30.

"Life is incredible. Wow," she added. "The love of my life has finally arrived... Auntie is the best title I've ever been given."

The tweets have since been deleted and Perry has not publicly confirmed that he's a father. Back in September, reports first surfaced that the Hollywood producer and his on-again, off-girlfriend were expecting. At the time, E! Online reported that Bekele was already seven or eight months along.

'Yes, yes and we're very excited about it, very excited," Perry told E!.

He also gushed about becoming a father during a September interview with "Extra" and accidentally revealed the baby's gender.

"The greatest gift I'm being given right now is the opportunity to give the little boy in me everything I never had, so that's what I'm excited about. This beautiful human being that God has allowed to come into my life for me to get to know, because they come with their own personalities, who they are, to shepherd and usher him..."

Realizing his slip-up, Perry responded, "I said 'him.'"

Smiling he continued, "...into whatever the child is supposed to be is what I'm going to do."

UPDATE: A source confirmed the news to E! Online saying, "Everyone is doing great. They are so happy." Perry and Bekele named their baby boy, born last Sunday, Aman.
