According to a new report from The Daily Star, Russell Brand and his fiancée, Laura Gallacher, 27, have welcomed a daughter called Mabel.
Earlier in the week, the comedian confirmed his partner had given birth to their first child during a stand-up set at the Nottingham Playhouse. However the 41-year-old didn’t provide any details on his baby’s name or gender.
During a recent appearance on The Jonathan Ross Show, the author revealed that he hadn’t find out his child’s sex and he wanted to raise his first-born gender neutral.
“We don’t know the gender. I may not even ever impose a gender upon it, let the child grow up and be whatever the hell it is,” Rusty shared.

Rusty also admitted he’d been rigorously reading up on parenting.
“I read a different book every week to mentally prepare me for it. I don’t know that it has prepared me for it,” he told the talk-show host.
The former party boy admitted he couldn’t wait to become a dad.
“I feel lit up by the idea I’m very excited about becoming a dad and I’m preparing myself. I am just getting ready to be with a new little person and see what it is they want,” he said to The Evening Standard.
Russell, who was previously married to Katy Perry, has been dating Laura on and off for over a decade.
