Aaron Hernandez’s fiancée, Shayanna Jenkins, gave birth to a baby girl on June 16 near her home in Providence, Rode Island, PEOPLE confirms.
Sources close to Jenkins deny rumors that the former New England Patriots star froze his sperm prior to his conviction for the 2013 murder of his friend, pro football player Odin Lloyd.
According to Radar Online, the baby’s father is Jenkin’s current boyfriend, pro boxer Dino Guilmette.
Hernandez committed suicide by hanging in his prison cell in April 2017. He was 27.
Jenkins and Hernandez share a daughter, Avielle Hernandez, 5.
In May, Jenkins posted a photo of herself on Instagram.com with a pregnant belly. The mother-of-one confirmed she was expecting another girl, saying, “I wanted to have a moment for myself alone with my daughter … we are beyond excited about the new addition and chapter we will soon begin . I couldn’t be a luckier woman to have such a perfect little girl that’s prepared to become the best big sister , and even more blessed to welcome another babygirl to our home.”
Hernandez’s murder conviction was vacated after his death. He is now an innocent man.
