U2’s Adam Clayton has welcomed his first child with wife Mariana

Wonderful news.

Just days after U2 rocked a sold out Croke Park for their Joshua Tree tour, Adam Clayton and his wife Mariana have confirmed that they have become parents for the first time. The couple made the official announcement in the personal section of The Irish Times. It read:

"Adam and Mariana Clayton are delighted to announce the birth of their beautiful baby girl Alba."

Adam and Mariana married in a small ceremony in Dublin before having a second wedding day in Cannes in 2013. Bono recently let it slip that Adam and Mariana were expecting a baby when he announced it on stage when playing in London as part of their tour. He said, "Is Adam Clayton not a sexy man?" Then turning to Adam he adds, "Is your sexy woman here tonight?” and then asks, "And, expecting a sexy baby, can I say that?" Unsurprisingly Adam says "no" which left Bono saying, "Forget I said that!" and mouthing the word 'sorry' to Adam. Watch the awkward moment unfold here:
