Avril Lavigne Is a Mom! Singer Welcomes Her First Baby With Mystery Partner

"Our Mini F--king Princess has arrived," she wrote on Instagram.

Avril Lavigne got her happy ending. The 42-year-old singer revealed Friday (Nov. 13) that she and her partner — a mystery man whose identity has not been revealed — have welcomed a child together, shocking fans who’d had no idea she was expecting.

The Billboard Hot 100-topping first-time mom broke the news with a set of photos on Instagram, all black-and-white. The first shows her baby girl’s tiny hand holding onto Dad and Lavigne’s hands, while the second features the pop-rocker cradling the newborn in her arms. A third snap fittingly shows three pairs of shoes — checkered Vans, Lavigne’s signature footwear — lined up in a row, one of them considerably smaller than the others.
