Avril Lavigne announced Friday (Nov. 13) that she and her partner have welcomed a baby girl, her first child. The 42-year-old singer has not revealed her partner’s identity.
Lavigne shared the news in a series of black-and-white Instagram photos. One shows the baby holding her parents’ hands, another shows Lavigne cradling her, and a third shows three pairs of checkered Vans, including a small pair for the newborn.
“Our Mini F–king Princess has arrived,” Lavigne wrote in the caption, referencing a lyric from her 2007 Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 single “Girlfriend.”
Lavigne had not posted on Instagram for more than a year before the announcement. She turned off comments on the baby post, but fans shared their surprise on her previous post, a collection of October 2025 photos from When We Were Young Festival.
“I’M SORRY WHAT–,” one person wrote. Another commented, “WHAT THE HELL AVRIL!!!! OMG.”
The Grammy nominee’s most recent public relationship was with Tyga in 2023. Before that, she was engaged to Mod Sun.
