"Briana and Ryan are overjoyed with their newest addition to their family and are eager and excited to begin their new lives together," the rep added.
Gunvalson, who has regularly expressed her excitement at becoming a first time grandmother in recent months, reportedly "couldn't stop crying" throughout the baby's birth.
"Baby Troy should be coming anytime this week!!!" Gunvalson wrote via her Facebook page on Tuesday.
"Briana is 37 weeks pregnant. Her biggest craving is strawberries and rasberries. We are so excited to meet baby Troy," she posted days prior.
The baby news comes days after reports of a failed romance. Gunvalson's former friend and "Real Housewives" co-star Tamra Barney recently tweeted a message claiming that Gunvalson's relationship with boyfriend Brooks Ayers was over.
"I hear Brooks is throwing down some mean comments on twitter cuz he got dumped......boy did I call that move!" Barney tweeted on Sept. 22.
Brooks, who spent much of his season seven appearances butting heads with Barney, wasted no time responding to Barney's assertions that he was dumped bu Gunvalson.
"Stupid and you aren't even "in the loop". #getalife #payattentiontoyourownbusiness," Brooks tweeted on Sept. 23.
Gunvalson also denied Barney's breakup claims and explained that both she and Brooks are simply taking time out.
"I don't know what everyone is talking about but I didn't dump Brooks. We are both taking time for ourselves right now," she tweeted.
