Campbell and her husband, Warryn, named their 6-pound, 12-ounce daughter Zaya Monique.
"Feeling so thankful and so blessed to have our sweet Zaya finally make her grand entrance into the world," Campbell said in a statement, as reported by Essence magazine. "God is awesome, our family couldn't be more happy than we are today!"
Mary Mary also took to Twitter to thank their fans for being supportive during Campbell's pregnancy process.
"Thank you everyone for your love and support," the duo tweeted.
Although Campbell and her husband have two children, her fans have witnessed a less than easy pregnancy. Campbell, who was forced to cancel a Christmas tour in early December due to her pregnancy, also went to the emergency room the day after Christmas after experiencing false labor pains.
