For years their house has been dominated by boys but Victoria and David Beckham have finally got the little girl they have been hoping for.
The couple announced their fourth child was born at 7.55am today and weighed 7lbs and 10oz.
A spokesman said: ‘David and Victoria Beckham are delighted to announce the birth of their daughter.
New addition: David and Victoria Beckham have welcomed a new addition to their family, a 7lbs 10oz baby girl'
‘Happy and healthy she arrived at 7.55 am this morning at Cedars Sinai hospital in Los Angeles. Brooklyn, Romeo and Cruz are excited to welcome their new baby sister to the family.'
The child was born by elected Caesarean, in the same way as her older children.
The Beckhams, who have been married for almost 12 years, have yet to release a name for their baby girl.
A close friend said: ‘There is no name as yet. They are going to spend a little time getting to know her before choosing the name.’
The couple are widely expected to stick to showbiz form with something unusual.
Reports suggested Luna was being considered as a name by the pair, while another touted Beverly, as a reference to Beverly Hills, as another possibility.
The couple also turned to their sons for ideas but apparently rejected Romeo's suggestion outright.
Oh baby! David posted this picture of his pregnant wife Victoria on his Facebook page earlier this week" HOGERA SANA DAD..
The youngster, a huge fan of Justin Bieber, announced his thoughts after his mother's first scan when she was told she was expecting a fourth son.
'When we got told it was a boy, one of the boys, my middle son Romeo, said, "how about Justin Bieber as a name - Justin Bieber Beckham",' his father told a US talkshow.
'So now we know it's a girl, he's like, 'how about Justine Bieber Beckham".'
Following the birth of the little girl, David's sister Joanne tweeted: 'Big congrats to my sister in law @victoriabeckham and my big bro on the birth of my beautiful niece :) can't wait 2 see u all xx'
A delighted Mel B, who is expecting her third child later this year, also expressed her excitement on the network site, writing: 'Congrats!!! Yipeee another spice baby is born, damn it wish it was me this AM cos I feel like I'm about to POP!'
And Emma Bunton added: 'Big kiss to @victoriabeckham can't wait to meet your gorgeous little girl!'
It's getting close! David was on the field for LA Galaxy yesterday ahead of his wife giving birth'
Excited: The couple's children Brooklyn and Romeo were there to cheer their dad on"
Victoria has remained active throughout her pregnancy - working on her fashion line and travelling up until last month.
Just days ago the LA Galaxy star, 36, posted a portrait of his heavily pregnant wife that put her form on show in all its glory.
He wrote on his Facebook page: 'Took this pic of Victoria while she wasn't looking. She looks amazing, so close now to the baby being born!'
And, earlier this week, David and Victoria were wished good luck for their arrival by Prince William and Catherine, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge.
David attended a drinks reception welcoming the royal couple to Los Angeles, but Victoria was absent from the event given that she was so close to the end of her pregnancy.
The footballer told Prince William: 'Victoria really wanted to come but she is just so tired at the moment. She sent you both lots of love. How was Canada? It looked amazing.
