Rebel Wilson announced on Instagram the birth of her first child, a daughter named Royce Lillian whom she welcomed via surrogate on Nov. 7.

The “Pitch Perfect” star wrote on Instagram next to a pic of baby Royce in a onesie: “Beyond proud to announce the birth of my first child, Royce Lillian, born this past week via surrogate. I can’t even describe the love I have for her, she’s a beautiful miracle! I am forever grateful to everyone who has been involved, (you know who you are), this has been years in the making… but particularly wanted to thank my gorgeous surrogate who carried her and birthed her with such grace and care. Thank you for helping me start my own family, it’s an amazing gift. The BEST gift!!”  The 42-year-old Wilson concluded her post by saying: “I am ready to give little Roycie all the love imaginable. I am learning quickly… much respect to all the Mums out there! Proud to be in your club.”

Wilson added a photo of herself wearing pink dress and holding pink balloons next to a stack of boxes spelling out the word “BABY” on her Instagram stories.
