Deion Sanders is about to take on a new chapter in his life. The Colorado Buffaloes coach is expected to be a grandpa around the time the season starts. His eldest daughter, Deiondra, announced she was pregnant with R&B singer Jacquees' baby on Friday. 

The 31-year-old told the world the news on Instagram, saying it was a miracle considering the health challenges she has faced throughout the years. Deiondra explained that doctors had told her for years it would be difficult to have a baby, but she's doing this for all the "high risk" moms who were scared to give birth. 

Coach Prime weighed in with his own congratulatory words. "I Love u baby," Sanders wrote. "You've always had a MAN in your life that u call DADDY & ain't gon ever ever let u DOWN especially when I'm UP."

Jacquees was also thrilled to be welcoming the next generation of Sanders into the world. He wrote that this was his "definition of real LOVE." Sanders and the R&B star started dating last year around the holidays. 

Deiondra is the oldest of her four siblings, all of whom are with Coach Prime in Boulder. On a personal note, She's one of the most kind-hearted individuals and we wish her the absolute best with lots of love for the road ahead.
