Hours ago, Daulton took to his Instagram page to share a couple of pictures with his thousands of followers. The proud boyfriend gave many fans, who have become overly invested in his relationship with Palmer, a peek into what last year gave him.

"To 2022, thank you for giving me a family❤️?" He captioned the post, which included several selfies of himself, a sultry photo of the happy couple looking cozy, sharing a kiss at the beach.

The loved-up photograph showcased the actress in a black bikini and long braided hair, being lifted by her boyfriend, who was dressed in yellow shorts with white, red, and green color mini designs while he dipped his legs into the water that surrounded them. The lovebirds shared a passionate smooch as they posed for the camera.

The highlight of the slideshow was the tiny child that showed on the ultrasound. The photo was the typical black and grey colored printout from the machine that presented the complete cranium with its nose and mouth sticking out.

The unofficial aunties and uncles, who were apparently giddy underneath the snap, poured out comments of congratulations and encouragement for the expectant dad. A follower commented, "?So excited for you & Keke! Your life is about to change forever & there is nothing better on this planet. Praying over y'all!???"

Another chimed in with some advice, "Congratulations to you and Keke! I don't know yall, but I'm so happy for you. Also, you should print the picture with your eyes closed so that you will have a reminder of what that's like after the newborn arrives?"

"Omgggg look at the little head? I'm crying," an emotional fan noted. A particular commentator kept it simple by writing, "Congrats u guys ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️." A follower, who could not resist the urge to play psychic, noted, "The last pic of the baby. I'm thinking it's a boy by the shape of the head. Looked my son head when I seen him?❤️."

Before this overwhelming love and support for his relationship with the Primetime Emmy Award winner and their incoming bundle of joy, the whole internet wondered who Palmer's baby daddy was and what he did in the industry.

Palmer was complicit in fueling the curiosity of many as she kept their romance reasonably private since they first linked in 2021. However, a report by PEOPLE detailed his career background, his relatives, and, more importantly, his love affair with the "Animal" actress.

Per reports, Daulton is related to the actor Sarunas J. Jackson, who is famous for his acting performance as Isaac Hall in "Good Trouble and Alejandro' Dro' Peña" on the comedy series "Insecure," in which Keke made a guest appearance.

The mystery man is a fitness instructor at Inspire Fitness Studio, where he is said to motivate others around him and thrives on making everyone very comfortable. The fitness center's website says he "enjoys being in a team-oriented environment."
