U2’s Adam Clayton has welcomed his first child with wife Mariana

Adam Clayton

Wonderful news.

Just days after U2 rocked a sold out Croke Park for their Joshua Tree tour, Adam Clayton and his wife Mariana have confirmed that they have become parents for the first time.

The couple made the official announcement in the personal section of The Irish Times, which read:

“Adam and Mariana Clayton are delighted to announce the birth of their beautiful baby girl Alba.”

Adam and Mariana married in a small ceremony in Dublin in 2013, before having a second wedding day in Cannes a few days later.

Bono recently let slip that Adam and Mariana were expecting a baby when he announced it on stage when playing in London as part of their tour. He said, “Is Adam Clayton not a sexy man?”

Then turned to Adam and said, “Is your sexy woman here tonight?” He also then asked, “And, expecting a sexy baby, can I say that?”

Unsurprisingly Adam says “no” which left Bono saying, “Forget I said that!” and mouthing the word ‘sorry’ to Adam.

Watch the awkward moment unfold here:
