Avril Lavigne Announces Birth of Child on Instagram

Avril Lavigne, 42, revealed on Friday (Nov. 13) that she and her partner, whose identity has not been revealed, have welcomed a child together. Lavigne broke the news with a set of photos on Instagram, all in black-and-white.

Lavigne wrote in the Instagram caption "Our Mini F–king Princess has arrived", referencing a lyric from her 2007 Hot 100 No. 1 single "Girlfriend". A third photo shows three pairs of checkered Vans lined up in a row, one of them considerably smaller than the others.

Before the announcement, Lavigne had not posted on her Instagram in more than a year. Lavigne turned off comments on her baby news post.

Lavigne has not been in a public relationship since her 2023 romance with Tyga, and was engaged to Mod Sun before that.
