Jamal Roberts Shared Adorable Photo of New Baby Before 'American Idol' Finale

American Idol finalist Jamal Roberts shared major family news during the 2025 season.

Two days before the May 18 final, he shared a photo of his new baby daughter wearing a ladybug costume on his Instagram page.

"Hey world, meet my little ladybug ????, Gianna Grace Roberts. I’m so proud to be her father ???? #girldadforlife#idol," he wrote.

Roberts' dating history is not clear, including whether he has a girlfriend, as he did not share the mother's name.

According to TV Insider, Gianna is one of Roberts' three kids. He also has daughters Harmoni and Lyrik, the site reported.

He is one of three finalists still competing.

Fans filled his Instagram comment thread with well-wishes after the baby announcement.

Roberts told Billboard that he started singing in church, which his family encouraged. He also said that he bucked tradition by having kids before getting married and having a wife, but he doesn't regret that.

"Some people say don’t have kids before you’re married. Growing up in the church, of course we knew to be married before we had kids," he told Billboard. "I wasn’t, but being a dad is literally the best thing that ever happened to me. It calmed me down and gave me a better look at things and actually having girls teaches you how to treat a woman. They’re very sensitive, especially with their daddy. So you learn how to treat this one without making this one feel jealous.”

He also credited his grandparents for his singing talents.

“I started singing at the age of two. My grandparents found out I could sing and I started singing in church and [covering] the Temptations and Michael Jackson," he told the site. "I had a granddaddy on my dad’s side who was a bishop and a grandad on my mom’s side was a deacon, so I was in church every time the door opened. I was the usher, and I was in the choir and I used to play the drums.”
