Australian singer Peter Andre is a third-time father after his partner Emily Macdonagh gave birth to a baby girl.

The couple welcomed the tot at the Musgrove Park Hospital in Somerset, England on Tuesday (07Jan14).

Confirming the new arrival on Twitter.com, Andre writes, "We are very happy to announce the safe arrival of our beautiful baby girl. We are extremely thrilled and mum and bubba are doing fine (sic). We are looking forward to a nice quiet couple of weeks getting to know our baby. Thanks to everyone at Musgrove Park Hospital."

The tot is Andre's first with MACDonagh. He has a son, Junior, and daughter, Princess Tiaamii, with his ex-wife, model-turned-reality star Katie Price.
