The news comes a few days after he and Kirsten got married at a Newport Beach, California. The rapper shared a series of photos on his Instagram of their wedding, captioned, "The Bennetts." They had their first daughter, Kensli in September 2015. She joined her parents at their Pelican Hill resort wedding ceremony this past weekend.

Fatherhood has changed Chance The Rapper's life for the better. He's previously revealed the impact she's had on his creative process and his approach to making art.

“I didn’t know love until I had my daughter. I didn't know its bounds, you know what I’m saying?... It makes me work better with people, it makes me more understanding of how much dedication and love I can put into each line. There’s no throwaway lines," he told Pharrell on AppleMusic's iamOTHER podcast.
