Kenan Thompson has become a father for the first time.

The 'Kenan and Kel' star's wife Christina Evangeline gave birth to a daughter called Georgia Marie on Friday (20.06.14) and the couple are said to be ecstatic.

The baby weighed in at six pounds when she arrived at 10:30 a.m. at a New York City hospital, TMZ is reporting, and the 36-year-old 'Saturday Night Live' comedian hasn't slept "a wink" since.

Kenan first revealed he was going to become a father during an appearance on 'Late Night With Seth Meyers' in March.

He enthused: "I'm about to be a daddy! That's right! Papa Kenan."

The Nickelodeon star joked that he planned to be "at the casino" when his wife of two years gave birth because he was so nervous about their new arrival.

He said: "I am terrified. I don't know what to do with babies. Like, do you feed it and like, put it away or something?"

Christina shared two pictures of the happy family on Instagram over the weekend, captioning an image of her cradling baby Georgia to her chest, "We're just really sleepy."
