Robin Thicke & Paula Patton Welcome Son Julian Fuego

Demis Maryannakis/Splash News Online

Robin Thicke had good reason for canceling his portion of a show with Alicia Keys Tuesday evening!

He and actress wife Paula Patton welcomed their first child, son Julian Fuego, on Tuesday, April 6th in Los Angeles, PEOPLE has confirmed exclusively.

“Mother, father and son are all doing well,” says Thicke’s rep, while Keys offered her congratulations from the stage.

Grandfather Alan Thicke says Julian “already has Robin’s voice, Paula’s sense of drama – he arrived a little early – and my hair.”

Leave your best wishes for the couple at the left!

Congratulations to Robin & Paula!

- LL65 on April 7th, 2010

Wow, what a middle name! At first I was like what were they thinking but after saying it a couple of times I really like it. It is certainly original. I wonder what’s the story behind that. They are certainly on Fire as a couple!

- Julie on April 7th, 2010

Congratulations, Paula & Robin!!

May God bless you and your family on this glorious occasion..

- Sunshine on April 7th, 2010

Aww congrats!! Can’t wait to see pics, I’m sure he’s as beautiful as his parents.

- Tee on April 7th, 2010

Congratulations to Robin and Paula. I’m sure Julian is adorable!

- Liliana on April 7th, 2010

Maybe Fuego (Fire) is a family last name.

- someone on April 7th, 2010

Wasn’t he not due until May sometime!? I’m so glad to hear Paula & Julian are doing well though. Without a doubt I bet he is just gorgeous, can’t wait to see pictures!!

Not being a native speaker, I was wondering…how do you pronounce ‘Thicke’?

And congratulations Paula and Robin!

- Caroline on April 7th, 2010

Welcome Julian!

- May on April 7th, 2010

It’s pronounced “thick.” Congrats to them.

- May on April 7th, 2010

Congrats on the new addition to the family. I love this couple and Robin Thicke’s music is hot. A lot of people are sleeping on his music and its unfortunate because he is wonderful!! Cannot wait to see pics of the new bundle of joy.

@ Caroline
Its pronounced thick. The “e” is silent.

- Cita on April 7th, 2010

CONGRATULATIONS!! I love the middle name Fuego! Can’t wait to see the little guy!

- Crystal on April 7th, 2010

they give birth to a soap star!

- Romy on April 7th, 2010

Love the name. I’m sure he’s gorgeous and granddad is HI-larious. “He has my hair.” Alan, that thick head of hair is all gonna fall out! But it’ll grow back, I’m sure.

Congrats all around.

- Jen DC on April 7th, 2010

Jen, many babies keep all of their hair. My kids never lost theirs.

- Romy on April 7th, 2010

Congratulations to Robin and Paula! Julian Fuego Thicke (I love Fuego, which is Spanish for “fire”; very unique) is a great name and he’s sure to be as gorgeous as his parents!

- Andrea on April 7th, 2010

Wow! Congratulations…I gotta say I’m a little freaked out because I’m due in may and I thought when they have their baby I’ll have my boy too!!! But I’m not ready yet!!!

- paula on April 7th, 2010

Ahhhh! Yeah. Congrats to them. They seem like lovely people and that baby is sure to be good looking…. Fuego is a family name….

- Anonymous on April 7th, 2010

Congratulations!! We are sure he is adorable!!

- JJ Cole Collections on April 7th, 2010

Congratulations! Love the update from Grandpa Alan, so cute and funny!

- Cookie on April 8th, 2010

May- I did not realize that Thicke was prounouced that way (I always just assumed it was pronouced “Thick-ee”). I don’t know if I’d want that for a last name!

That being said, congrats to them!

- CelebBabyLover on April 8th, 2010

This announcement surprised me! Lola Monroe I was thinking the same. I thought she was due later.

I was really excited about this celeb baby because Paula and Robin have been together so long.

Welcome to the world baby Julian.

- Lola Marie on April 8th, 2010

Adorable couple! Julian sure is adorable! Congratz

- Patrick on April 8th, 2010

the reason why his name is “fuego” is because either paula or robin are a fire zodiac sign, ergo… fire=fuego in spanish… they also said that if it were a girl, the middle would be “azul” because again, one of the them is a water zodiac sign…ergo, azul=blue=water…

- lem on April 8th, 2010

I was due around the same time And had my son in the end of December. Its crazy to think I would be about to deliver if he didn’t want to come play.

- Jessi on April 8th, 2010

Congratulations!!! You two do good work!!! He is no doubt going to be a lady killer with those gorgeous genes. So proud. God Bless!

- virgolady on April 8th, 2010

Congrats, that’s great!

- Dana Trentacost on April 8th, 2010

Congratulations Robin & Paula, you had your son on my B’day the 6th…..Good for all of you….Julian Fuego is a cool name.

- Tammy on April 8th, 2010

Lola Monroe and Lola Marie- Robin is quoted in the post as saying that Julien came a little early.

- CelebBabyLover on April 9th, 2010

Congrats to Paula and Robin! Love the name. When she was on Jay Leno awhile back she explained the name Fuego. It has something do to with her astrological sign or something being Fire. Had it been a girl they were going to use middle name Aqua as Robin’s sign has something to do with water.

- Claudia S on April 9th, 2010

HA! You’re right. She did say Azul, I got my water references mixed up..LOL

- Claudia S on April 9th, 2010

Aww, many congrats to them on Julian’s safe arrival. I’m impatient, but I’m already counting down the minutes until the first glimpse of this little baby boy.

- FC on April 9th, 2010

lem- Interesting! So it seems like we know what they’ll use as a middle name for a daughter if they ever have one!

- CelebBabyLover on April 10th, 2010

Congrats!. Welcome to the world, Julian Fuego. Incidentally, I just realized how much Robin Thicke looks like Brad Pitt used to look in the late 90′s in this pic, hehe.

- Niko on April 10th, 2010

Welcome! Dear boy! Be happy!
