"Melanie Hamrick & Mick Jagger's son was born today in New York and they are both delighted," the singer's rep told E! News. "Mick was at the hospital for the arrival. Mother and baby are doing well and we request that the media respect their privacy at this time."

Jagger and Hamrick reportedly began their relationship in 2014 and have kept it private. His rep announced the ballerina's pregnancy in July.

The rocker has seven other children, four daughters and three sons ages 18 to 47, with four exes. He also has five grandchildren.

Jagger and Hamrick's newborn son is already a great-uncle; Jagger became a great-grandfather in 2014 when granddaughter Assisi Jackson gave birth to a baby girl.

Jagger's band mate Ronnie Wood, 69, is also a new dad again; He and wife Sally Humphreys, 38, welcomed twin daughters in May. The musician has four other children from previous relationships, as well as six grandchildren.
