Kim Kardashian's ex has become a first time father after his fiancée gave birth to a baby girl.

'Lilit gave birth to a beautiful baby girl,' the rep told the publication, adding that she weighed in at 8lbs, 9oz.

Reggie famously dated Kim on-off for several years before finally calling time on their relationship in March 2010.

The Detroit Lions running back has been dancing 25-year-old dancer Lilit for around 18 months.

During their relationship, Lilit has been compared to Kim - both are of Armenian heritage, have dark hair and voluptuous figures.

Bush confirmed Lilit was pregnant in October 2012, two months before 32-year-old Kim announced that she was pregnant with boyfriend Kanye West.

Speaking at the time of his happy announcement, Bush told Florida's Paul and Young Ron Morning Show. 'I have a little one on the way. We're pretty excited.'

Just last month Bush posted a blog on the Detroit Lions' website, opening up about his thoughts on becoming a first-time father.

'I'm very excited. Very excited about the baby. It's our first one and couldn't have come at a better time.

'It couldn't have come with a better person. Someone I really love and care about. It's great. It really worked out perfect.'

Bush said he planned to travel between his family in Los Angeles and work in Michigan.

He added: 'The baby will be in LA Well, [Avagyan] is going to be in LA because her family lives 15-20 minutes away from us.

'So she's going to need that support system while I'm here for a few days out of each week. Then I'll be home... I'm going to rack up a lot of sky miles, I know that.'

Bumping along: Kim is due to give birth to Kanye West's child in July, seen right with Reggie, who she dated on-off for several years before finally splitting in 2010

Although I think Kim K is a beautiful woman, no matter how she got her fame, There is no question that Reggie Bush and his gorgeous beauty is by far a better looking duo. I am happy for both pregnancies, as motherhood is precious but this story should not have mentioned Kim K let along associated her pictures with this lovely couples happy moment. You people can be so distasteful!

Trust me, Reggie's grandma, who lives near me, in southern California, did not approve at all of Kim. And you know what....soon after, he broke up with her. So it was never going anywhere with him. As for his looks, you got that right.....much more handsome then P.D.

Reggie is so much better looking than Kanye. Has to have a better personality too but to be fair everyone has a better personality than Kanye. She's probably still kicking herself over what she had and the tool she ended up with. Serves her up for always trying to trade up.
