Achtung! It's a new baby for the U2 bassist.

Adam Clayton and his wife Mariana have had a baby girl. The announcement was made just two days after his band's return to Dublin for their Joshua Tree Croke Park gig.

Married since 2013, the two took out a personal ad in The Irish Times to let people know the joyous news, as well as confirming that the name of their baby is Alba:

The couple had married in a registry office in the Irish capital before a second ceremony days later on the French Riviera.

Congrats to Adam and Mariana on the lovely news!
