Christina Milian 'Felt the Love' During Baby Shower for Son on the Way: 'I Had Such a Great Time’

Christina Milian is counting down the days!

The Falling Inn Love star, 38, who is expecting a son with boyfriend Matt Pokora, celebrated her baby on the way with friends and family on Saturday at her shower, which was held in Westwood Village, California.

“I had such a great time at our shower. It felt so good celebrating with our closest friends and family,” Milian tells PEOPLE exclusively in a statement, before seemingly dropping a hint at the name the couple have chosen for their baby boy on the way. “Matt and I felt the love in the room and can’t wait to meet our little ‘Prince.’ “

Thrown in collaboration with Peanut — a social network that connects women through their fertility and motherhood journeys — the shower had a photobooth and was filled with plenty of mouth-watering food and yummy treats.

Some of Milian’s famous pals also stopped by to celebrate the star’s big day, including Khadijah Haqq McCray and Malika Haqq, who is also expecting a son, as well as Nicole Williams and Olivia Pierson.
