Theron, who adopted a boy named Jackson, 3, in 2012, has now added another African-American child to the family.

The baby girl’s name is August, and E! News has confirmed the child was born in July.

Theron previously opened up on The Ellen DeGeneres Show about how arduous the adoption process wait can be.

“My mum said the most beautiful thing. I’m going to cry,” Theron said. “She said…’It took me nine months to fall in love with you while you were growing in my stomach.’ She’s like, ‘It took you two years to fall in love with this little baby’.

“It really took two years of just waiting and then one day it’s finally there,” she said. “It just feels exactly how it’s supposed to feel. I don’t know how to describe it. It just feels right.”

Theron split from boyfriend Sean Penn in June, so will be raising the pair as a single mother.
