Tyra Banks is now the proud mum of a baby boy!

The ex-America's Next Top Model host, Tyra Banks had some struggles with her fertility, stating that, “I’ve had some not happy moments with that, very traumatic moments.”

It seems that these moments have passed with the arrival of Yorks Banks Asla, born via surrogate.

In her Instagram post below, the proud new mum gave thanks to the "angel of a woman" who carried the baby.

"The best present we worked and prayed so hard for is finally here. He’s got my fingers and big eyes and his daddy Erik’s mouth and chin"

-Tyra Banks
