TMZ was the first to report on Ice and Coco’s baby news Monday. According to the site, the married couple has been “jawboning about” the topic of children for years. Ice has two children from prior relationships, son Tracy Morrow Jr. and daughter Letesha Marrow. “She wants a kid. In the end, she got her way, after 15 years of marriage,” reports TMZ.

Coco and Ice T tied the knot in 2001. The duo have hemmed and hawed about having a child on several episodes of their E! reality series, “Ice Loves Coco,” in recent years. In April 2014, Coco told InTouch Weekly she was planning for a child.

“… We keep a list of what we need to do, and right now having a baby is next on the life list!” Coco told the magazine. “I’m prenataling it with vitamins and everything to get my body prepared.”

While this is the duo’s first child together, they do share two babies, bulldogs Spartacus and Maximus. The pups are so famous, in fact, they have their own Instagram page.
