“Bling Empire” baby!

Kelly Mi Li and boyfriend William Ma welcomed their first baby — a daughter — together on Sunday, April 9.

“Welcome to the world Mili! She’s finally here after being fashionably late to her own due date!” Li told People on Tuesday.

“William and I are incredibly grateful to have gone through this journey of pregnancy, with the love and support from all of our friends and family, and Dr. Meschter and her staff at Cedars Sinai.”

The reality star surprised her Instagram followers with a positive pregnancy test in November.

“Well, the mystery to why I’ve been craving sweets and not just spicy food is finally solved! 😅,” the 37-year-old wrote at the time.

“We’re so beyond grateful and excited to be starting this new chapter in our lives,” she continued.

“If you watch #BlingEmpire, then you know how much my mom wants to be a grandma!”

Despite keeping her man’s identity under wraps for most of her pregnancy, he was revealed in February during their baby shower.

Li had previously called Ma her “best friend,” writing on Instagram that she has “never felt so supported, loved, fulfilled and cared for.”

The Netflix personality, who did not “know this kind of love was even possible,” added, “They say when you meet the right person, you will just know.”

Li has been married before, divorcing husband Lin Miao in 2015.

“It was difficult due to the reason that all of a sudden your life’s upside down,” she told The List in February 2021 of the end of her marriage.

Li moved on with Andrew Gray. She and her co-star made headlines in March 2021 when they called it quits after five years together.

The following year, Li told The Post that she hadn’t “really spoken” to her ex since their breakup.
