Avril Lavigne recently welcomed a baby daughter with her partner. She hasn't revealed the name or any details about her partner yet.

The eight-time Grammy-nominated singer announced on Friday, November 13, that she had given birth to a daughter. She shared a carousel post on Instagram. The first picture showed her and her partner holding their daughter's hand. In the second picture, she held the baby, while the third picture showed three pairs of shoes on a skateboard.

In the caption, Avril Lavigne wrote:

"Our Mini F*cking Princess has arrived 🎀👑🍼🩷"

A representative for the singer reportedly told PEOPLE magazine:

“Avril has been enjoying time with her family while working on her new album and wants to thank the fans for all of their love!”

Notably, Lavigne's current partner remains unknown. The Complicated singer's past relationships have garnered a lot of attention, which is perhaps the reason for keeping this one private.

Among the publicly known partners, Avril Lavigne briefly dated a guitarist in her band named Jesse Colburn (via Page Six). She then started dating Sum 41 frontman, Deryck Whibley. They also got engaged in 2005 and tied the knot the following year.

However, she filed for divorce in 2009, and it was finalized the following year. They expressed their mutual respect and admiration for each other, though. Lavigne was also reported to be dating Brandon Davis and Wilmer Valderrama.

The Grammy-nominated singer then reportedly started dating Brody Jenner in 2009, but they broke up a few years later. She then married Nickelback singer Chad Kroeger in 2013, but they got a divorce two years later.

Avril Lavigne then reportedly dated J.R. Rotem, Phillip Sarofim, and Pete Jonas. She then started seeing Mod Sun in 2021, and they got engaged in 2022. However, they called it off in February 2023. She was also rumored to be dating Tyga in 2023.

While she has largely kept her new relationship private, Avril Lavigne spoke about them in general in an episode of the Call Her Daddy podcast, released in May 2024. She said that she is “f*cking awesome” in relationships. She added:

“I never really did the dating thing. I was always, like, in a pretty major relationship. I would date me. I cook. I’m a really big cook, really big into, like, the house and decorating, and I have a lot of fun with that.”
“The most important thing is finding someone that you’re compatible with. Obviously, it all just sounds cliché. Someone that is trustworthy, ‘cause if you don’t have that, you’re just never going to feel grounded in the relationship, and you’re going to be spinning,” she added.

When host Alex Cooper asked if she was dating someone, Avril Lavigne didn't answer and continued to speak about relationships in general.

Meanwhile, the singer has largely remained out of the public eye in the last year. She made a rare public appearance in September this year, attending Paris Hilton's party at Slivington Manor.
