Avril Lavigne announces birth of her first child
The singer shared photos of her daughter on social media but did not reveal the baby's name or identify the father.
Avril Lavigne announced on Nov. 13 that she had welcomed her first child, a daughter, sharing the news through a social media post accompanied by family photographs.
The announcement included three monochrome images: Lavigne and her partner holding the baby's hand, the singer holding her daughter, and a skateboard topped with three pairs of checkered Vans shoes. She provided neither her daughter's name nor the father's identity.
Lavigne had previously spoken about wanting children while emphasizing that she was not ready to become a parent. In a 2008 interview with OK! Magazine, she said she hoped to become a mother in her 30s. Speaking to QMI Agency in 2014, she again expressed interest in motherhood but said her career was her priority.
Her most recent public relationship was with rapper Tyga, whom she dated in 2023. Earlier that year, Lavigne and Mod Sun ended their engagement.
