The Story
Avril Lavigne announced that she has welcomed her first child, a baby girl, in an Instagram post on Friday.
In the caption, the singer wrote, “Our mini princess has arrived,” and shared three images.
One photo shows Lavigne holding the infant to her chest, alongside a skateboard, with adult-size checkered Vans and baby Vans pictured beside it.
In another image, Lavigne and her presumed partner hold the baby’s hand. Lavigne has not revealed the partner’s identity or the baby’s name.
The 42-year-old singer rose to prominence with her debut album, “Let Go,” which sold more than 17 million copies worldwide after its 2002 release and launched hits including “Complicated,” “I’m with You” and “Sk8er Boi.”
Her follow-up records, “Under My Skin” (2004) and “The Best Damn Thing” (2007), both debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, and “Girlfriend,” from “The Best Damn Thing,” became her first No. 1 single in the United States.
