Post Malone is officially a dad!

The rapper, 26, welcomed his first baby, a daughter, with his fiancée last month, PEOPLE can confirm.

The "Circles" artist revealed the happy news while appearing on Monday's episode of Sirius XM's The Howard Stern Show, during which he also dropped the news that his longtime girlfriend, whom he hasn't identified publicly, is now his fiancée.

Post Malone, whose real name is Austin Post, subtly shared that he became a dad as he told Stern that he "kissed" his "baby girl" before recently heading to the recording studio.

"That's been on the QT [quiet] though? We didn't know you had a daughter, right?" Stern asked the musician, who affirmatively confirmed the news.
