Robbie Williams is celebrating after becoming a first-time father.

The former Take That star's wife Ayda Field gave birth to a daughter, Theodora Rose, in the U.K. on Tuesday.

Baby, mummy and daddy are all rockin... Thank you for your best wishes

The proud dad took to his official blog to announce the happy news, writing, "Praise be, it's Theodora Rose Williams, affectionately known as Teddy... Born 3.33pm on 18.9.12, 7lbs 4oz...

"Baby, mummy and daddy are all rockin... Thank you for your best wishes".

Teddy is the first child for Williams and actress Field, who married in 2010.

Following the birth, Robbie's ex-bandmate Cary Barlow was quick to congratulate him, with him tweeting 'Massive congrats Rob and Ayda. So happy for you.'

The singer had previously said that he feared missing the birth of his daughter after aranging dates for his new tour on the due date, but luckily was able to escape that fate.
