The Rob & Chyna star seems to be in a sentimental mood recently. Earlier in the week, Rob shared a cute picture of himself and 3-month-old daughter Dream similarly snuggling close.

“My favorite pic of us,” the reality star captioned the image, which he first posted seven weeks ago. In the snap, his lookalike daughter wears a cozy gray shirt and cuddles up against his shoulder.

Rob’s tender moments come amid what sources tell Us is a tough time for him and ex-fiancée Blac Chyna. “This breakup feels more real because both of them are very calm,” a source told Us. “Rob and Chyna haven’t really been together since Christmas, not really properly.”

Over the holidays, the pair had a dramatic fight that seemingly led to Chyna, 28, taking Dream and emptying their house of all their baby furniture. The pair seemed to reconcile in the new year, however, with Rob sharing photos of Dream on Wednesday, January 4. “My baby,” he captioned one shot of Dream in a white long-sleeved shirt with a lace Peter Pan collar and dark overalls.
