"Little man is here. We have a beautiful boy a part of our family now!! Wow is he a long one. We love you Tripp McCarron #proudparents," the NFL star tweeted.

Webb had hinted her son's birth was near at hand, sharing a photo of Elizabeth Taylor, Mike Todd and their daughter Liza on Sunday. "Feels. Big day tomorrow," she wrote, suggesting she was scheduled for a C-section or to induce labor.

The Miss Alabama 2012 winner and McCarron have been together since 2012 and married in 2014. Webb announced she was four months pregnant with their first child in an Instagram post in December.

"AJ and I feel beyond blessed and grateful to finally announce after 4 months we have been keeping a secret! We are having a boy!" the star captioned a photo of herself during a sonogram.

Webb placed in the top 10 in the Miss USA 2012 pageant after winning Miss Alabama and later appeared on the ABC reality competition Splash. She also modeled in the 2013 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue.
