Khloé Kardashian’s best friend, Malika Haqq, has revealed that her unborn child is a baby boy. The model and reality star shared the news a few days ago in another sponsored Instagram post, as with previous updates about her pregnancy.

Malika, 36, took to the photo-sharing platform to share the result of a shoot with Bio-Oil. Wearing a silky blue outfit that bared her growing bump and a wet-hair look, she knelt beside a bottle of the product.

"It’s A Boy!!!" Malika announced before revealing why she’s bringing Bio-Oil along on her journey:

"I’m thankful to my baby boy and @BioOilUSA for my pregnancy glow. #BioOilPartner I’ve used this oil for over 10 years to lessen the appearance of scars, stretch marks and for instant moisture. I wouldn’t dare go this pregnancy without it."

According to Daily Mail, the skincare company Malika partnered with is favored by expectant mothers because its oil helps with stretch marks as well as scars, uneven skin tone, aging and dehydrated skin.

Malika remained resolute, however, that she would not be talking about her unidentified baby daddy.

The outlet also noted that, following her gender reveal, Malika has been getting into the baby boy mood and showed off a royal blue manicure on her Instagram Story.

The "Good American" model has been cashing out since the beginning of her pregnancy, starting with a baby-on-the-way announcement via a paid partnership with pregnancy test company Clearblue.

Last month, Malika also endorsed the Peanut App, a program that connects moms-to-be with other expectant moms within their area.

Malika announced her pregnancy in late September, and even though she’s now lifted the lid on her unborn baby’s gender, she’s still not revealing her baby daddy.

There have been rumors that the father is Malika’s on/off rapper boyfriend, O.T. Genasis. Still, the reality star is not confirming anything, not even on her new Facebook Watch series with twin sister Khadijah Haqq McCray.

The twins opened up to PEOPLE about their show "Side By Side" earlier this month, revealing why they chose to do it. Malika said:

"We didn’t really want to do a reality show on us, but I think there comes a time when there’s so many different narratives out there about you that are not actually who you are. It’s us being able to finally shed a little bit of light about who we are."

"It’s just us going, 'We can sit down, be vulnerable and share the things that we love and that other people may be able to identify with us,'" Khadijah added.

Malika remained resolute, however, that she would not be talking about her unidentified baby daddy.

"My life will be my life and my perspective," the California-born twin said, adding that she doesn’t "really plan on speaking" about her child’s father on "Side by Side."
