Key Takeaways

  • Avril Lavigne announced the birth of her first child, a daughter, on Instagram, writing: "Our Mini Fucking Princess has arrived."
  • Her three black-and-white photos include the newborn in a cheetah-print outfit and three pairs of checkered Vans lined up on a skateboard.
  • The singer kept her daughter's name and the father's identity private.

Avril Lavigne is a mother for the first time, announcing that she has welcomed the arrival of a baby girl.

On Friday (November 13), the pop-punk singer took to Instagram to share the news alongside a carousel of black-and-white photographs. "Our Mini Fucking Princess has arrived 🎀👑🍼🩷," she captioned the post.

In the first photo, Lavigne and her partner hold the baby's tiny hand. In the second, she cradles the newborn, who wears a cheetah-print outfit and a matching headband bow. The last slide shows only shoes: three pairs of checkered Vans on a skateboard, lined up by height.

Maintaining her privacy, Lavigne didn't share the baby's name or the name of the father. Her past relationships, however, have been far more public. She was married to Sum 41's Deryck Whibley from 2006 to 2010, and later married Nickelback frontman Chad Kroeger.

She was engaged to Mod Sun until they split in February 2023. Tyga, her last publicly known partner, started dating her in early 2023, and the two broke up for good that October.
