Cassie, Husband Alex Fine Welcome Baby No. 3
Yara Sameh Cassie Ventura welcomed her third baby, a boy, with husband Alex Fine. The news comes after a source confirmed with PEOPLE that the singer, 38, was taken to a New York City hospital's labour and delivery unit. The newly minted mom of three first announced in a February 19 Instagram post that she was expecting her third baby with her husband. '🤰🏽💙 #3,' Cassie wrote in the caption alongside black-and-white photos of her debuting her baby bump while joined by Fine, 31, and their two daughters Sunny, 3, and Frankie, 5. In the first image shared, Cassie revealed her baby bump as she sat on the back of a couch wearing an open shirt over a crop top and jeans. Her girls, Sunny and Frankie, sat in front of her smiling and wearing matching dresses. Cassie also appeared with her baby bump in a following close-up shot as Fine's hands cradled her stomach. Other photos included in the post showed the expectant star sitting next to Fine as they posed with their girls, as well as Frankie and Sunny kissing her baby bump. Fine posted the same sweet photo on his platform as he wrote in the caption, 'Best gift I could ask for,' tagging photographer Jorden Keith. Fine, who tied the knot with Ventura in 2019, commented a series of heart emojis underneath the post. The personal trainer also posted a gif of the rapper Cardi B with the caption, 'Bro, I'm five months pregnant! I can't even breathe,' possibly indicating how far along Cassie was in her pregnancy at the time. The new addition to her family comes just weeks after the "Miss Your Touch" singer completed her four-day emotional testimony in Sean "Diddy" Combs' federal criminal trial. The Bad Boy Records founder is charged with sex trafficking, racketeering and transportation to engage in prostitution, and has pleaded not guilty. Ventura, a key witness for the prosecution, made several bombshell accusations, including an allegation that Combs raped her in 2018. Combs and Ventura were in a relationship for 11 years. During that time, she testified, she was made to participate in "Freak Offs" with male sex workers. Proving Ventura was coerced into participating was key for prosecutors trying to land a conviction on the charge of sex trafficking. Ventura, who was 8½ months pregnant during her testimony, also said Combs abused her and exerted immense control over her personal life. read more New Tourism Route To Launch in Old Cairo Ahmed El Sakka-Led Play 'Sayidati Al Jamila' to Be Staged in KSA on Dec. 6 Mandy Moore Joins Season 2 of "Dr. Death" Anthology Series Don't Miss These Movies at 44th Cairo Int'l Film Festival Today Amr Diab to Headline KSA's MDLBEAST Soundstorm 2022 Festival Arts & Culture Mai Omar Stuns in Latest Instagram Photos Arts & Culture "The Flash" to End with Season 9 Arts & Culture Ministry of Culture Organizes four day Children's Film Festival Arts & Culture Canadian PM wishes Muslims Eid-al-Adha News Ayat Khaddoura's Final Video Captures Bombardment of Beit Lahia News Australia Fines Telegram $600,000 Over Terrorism, Child Abuse Content Arts & Culture Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban's $4.7M LA Home Burglarized Sports Former Al Zamalek Player Ibrahim Shika Passes away after Long Battle with Cancer Sports Neymar Announced for Brazil's Preliminary List for 2026 FIFA World Cup Qualifiers News Prime Minister Moustafa Madbouly Inaugurates Two Indian Companies Arts & Culture New Archaeological Discovery from 26th Dynasty Uncovered in Karnak Temple Business Fear & Greed Index Plummets to Lowest Level Ever Recorded amid Global Trade War Arts & Culture Zahi Hawass: Claims of Columns Beneath the Pyramid of Khafre Are Lies News Flights suspended at Port Sudan Airport after Drone Attacks

Brevard County voters will be casting ballots in two special elections on June 10 to fill upcoming vacancies in the Florida Legislature. Registered Republicans voted in primaries on April 1 in Florida Senate District 19 and Florida House District 32. Florida is a "closed primary" state, so only registered Republicans were able to vote in those primaries. Debbie Mayfield won the four-candidate Senate District 19 primary, and Brian Hodgers won the three-candidate House District 32 primary. The winners of the primaries will face Democratic candidates in a June 10 special general election that is open to all voters.

Here are details about those two races: This election is for the seat previously held by Republican Randy Fine.

Cassie is a boy mom: Singer gives birth to baby No. 3 with husband Alex Fine
Cassie is celebrating a new personal milestone: her baby boy with husband Alex Fine has arrived. The 'Me & U' singer on Tuesday gave birth to her third child in a New York hospital, sources confirmed to TMZ and People. She and 'MobLand' actor Fine welcomed their newest family member after the former was rushed to the hospital Tuesday and admitted into the labor and delivery unit, according to TMZ. A representative for Cassie, 38, did not immediately respond to The Times' request for confirmation and additional information. The singer (born Casandra Ventura) married Fine, 32, in October 2019 months after meeting him earlier that year at a gym where he worked as a wellness consultant. They also share daughters Frankie, 5, and Sunny, 3. Cassie announced her pregnancy in February via Instagram, sharing photos from an intimate family photo shoot. She captioned the post — which prominently featured her baby bump and her loved ones surrounding her — with a few emojis, including a blue heart. Fine, also known for the series 'American Primeval' and '1883,' said in his own Instagram post at the time that his growing family was the 'best gift I could ask for.' The 'Long Way 2 Go' musician enters her newest chapter of motherhood less than two weeks after she testified against ex-boyfriend and disgraced music mogul Sean 'Diddy' Combs in his federal sex trafficking trial in New York. During her four days of testimony, Cassie shared disturbing allegations about her relationship with the Bad Boy Records boss — including his alleged fits of violence, threats of blackmail and his notorious sexual marathons called 'freak-offs.' She sued Combs in the fall of 2023, helping set the stage for additional lawsuits from other accusers, federal raids on Combs' homes in Los Angeles and Miami and more legal fallout. 'I hope my testimony has given strength and a voice to other survivors and can help others who have suffered to speak up and also heal from abuse and fear,' Cassie said in a statement shared by her attorney Douglas Wigdor. 'For me, the more I heal, the more I can remember. And the more I can remember, the more I will never forget.' Fine, in a statement through Wigdor, also shut down narratives that he saved his wife from Combs. 'To say that is an insult to the years of painful work my wife has done to save herself,' he said. 'Cassie saved Cassie.' He added: 'She alone broke free from abuse, coercion, violence and threats.' Fine concluded, noting 'this horrific chapter is forever put behind us' and asked for privacy ahead of the arrival of his son with Cassie. Times staff write Richard Winton and former Times staff writer Nardine Saad contributed to this report.

Cassie Welcomes Baby Number 3 Amid Ongoing Legal Drama Involving Ex Diddy
Source: Joe Maher / Getty Cassie is now a proud mom of three. The singer and model has given birth to her third child with husband Alex Fine, as confirmed by ABC News on Wednesday, May 28. The outlet noted that Fine is expected to share more details in the near future. The new addition to their family comes just weeks after Cassie delivered powerful testimony in the ongoing legal proceedings involving her ex-boyfriend, Sean 'Diddy' Combs. Cassie and Fine, who tied the knot a year after her split from Diddy, are also parents to daughters Frankie and Sunny. RELATED: Here Are Some Notable Moments Of Black Culture In 2025 Back in March, Cassie hinted at the baby's sex in a heartfelt birthday tribute to Alex on Instagram. 'You've taken care of me and my heart like no other,' she wrote. 'You're hands down the best girl dad and I'm SO excited to see you now become a father to OUR SON!' Fine, 32, was by Cassie's side in New York City during her four days of emotional courtroom testimony, where she described what she alleged was a traumatic relationship with Combs. Her accusations included claims of physical and sexual abuse, as well as forced drug use. These revelations followed a lawsuit Cassie filed in 2023, which led to a reported $20 million settlement. Diddy was arrested in September 2024 and has pleaded not guilty to all charges, including racketeering, sex trafficking, and related offenses. He has consistently denied the allegations, with his attorney calling them 'offensive and outrageous.' As Cassie embraces life with her growing family, the public remains captivated by the stark contrast between her present and her very public past.
