Canadian singer-songwriter and actor Carly Rae Jepsen has given birth to her first child.
The Call Me Maybe hitmaker and her husband, Cole M.G.N. – whose real name is Cole Marsden Greif-Neill – welcomed their baby into the world two weeks ago, but haven’t shared any further details about thetot, including their name or gender.
Jepsen shared a photo on her Instagram story of her holding her baby and wrote over the top of the photo: “Last 2 weeks have been the best of my life. Welcome to the world little one[sic].”
The 40-year-old announced her pregnancy in November, weeks after she and Cole M.G.N. were married.
The couple said “I do” in front of 100 guests in the Bard Room of Chelsea Hotel in New York City on October 4.
Speaking about the venue, Jepsen told Vogue: “We knew we wanted a location that meant something to us, and the Chelsea Hotel had become a home away from home every time we were in New York.
“As artists, its iconic history and lore made it that much more appealing. For planning, we had weekly dates to talk out all the details of the wedding. This way it was only ever fun and not too much at once.”
She said: “Being present and at ease was key for both of us. We wanted it to feel romantic and full of emotion. Our family talked about how we met, and we wrote personal vows to each other that we read aloud.”
And they both did not cry.
Jepsen remembered: “We were expecting to. But the energy was just light and joyful. Between the bright baby blue of the background, the wildflowers that surrounded us, and the intimate lighting, walking down the aisle felt like a fever dream.
“Nothing will top the moment when we first locked eyes, and to be honest, for the first half of the ceremony we couldn’t see anyone else.”

For the ceremony, Jepsen donned a strapless corseted dress with a draped skirt, which was created by Toni Maticevski.
At the reception she sported an ethereal, tiered dress from Danielle Franke.
Jepsen completed her look with pearl earrings, which were made by her mother, Alexandra Lanzarotta.
The two-time Grammy Award nominee said: “We knew we were trying to get pregnant, so I also wanted an alternative dress that was much more flowy that I could sub in for the ceremony or just change into for dancing.”
Cole wore a cream suit from Husbands in Paris and put on a pair of shoes by Gucci.
The couple’s accessories were put together by Carly’s stylist, Hayley Atkin.
