Pop singer-songwriter Sia has always been keen on keeping her personal life private — so private, that according to a new report, the singer welcomed her third child almost a year ago.
According to documents obtained by The Associated Press, Sia welcomed a baby named Somersault Wonder Bernad with her now-estranged husband, Daniel Bernad, on March 27, 2024. Somersault would be Sia’s third child, after the singer adopted two 18-year-old boys in 2019.
Billboard has reached out to Sia’s representatives for comment.
The documents in question are divorce filings, as Sia is currently seeking to end her marriage to Bernad. Citing “irreconcilable differences,” the “Chandelier” singer is currently asking the court not to award spousal payments to Bernard, while simultaneously seeking sole custody of her 11-month-old child.
While Sia has been reticent to speak about her personal life in the past, she has been outspoken about her decision to adopt her two sons in 2019, telling Vogue Australia that she saw one of her sons in a documentary about the foster care system and decided to adopt him and his friend. “I was like: ‘What? Like, he doesn’t have anybody. Oh my god. I’m going to find him and I’m going to be his mummy,’” she said. “And so that’s what I did.”
The singer also spoke in her interview about wanting to become a foster parent in the future. “The next thing I’m planning to do is foster actual infants. Maybe [their mother] is drug-addicted and then I could help look after them until, you know, their mum can get back on the wagon or an adoptive home is found,” she told the publication. “If I can do that then I think I’ll feel like I’m superhuman.”
Sia recently teamed up with her frequent collaborator David Guetta for “Beautiful People,” their newest hit dance single. The song quickly caught the attention of the pair’s fans, debuting at No. 8 on Billboard Hot Dance/Electronic Songs chart this week.
