“Fast & Furious” star Vin Diesel used the lyrics of the popular Louis Armstrong song to announce the arrival of his third child with longtime girlfriend, Paloma Jimenez.
The actor shared the announcement via Facebook on Monday with a touching picture of him with his new bundle of joy.
“I hear babies crying, I watch them grow,” he wrote. “They’ll learn much more, than I’ll never know. And I think to myself, what a wonderful world…”

Diesel, who was born Mark Sinclair, did not reveal the name or gender of his new baby. He and Jimenez, a Mexican model, are parents to daughter Hania Riley and son Vincent Sinclair.
News broke in February that the couple was expecting their third child after reports surfaced that Diesel had backed out of a few promotional stops for “Furious 7.”
