Hilary Duff is a mom of four.

The Lizzie McGuire star welcomed her fourth child, a girl, via home birth earlier this month, and shared candid photos Tuesday from the emotional experience.

“Townes Meadow Bair 🧸, now we know why she made us wait so long…She was perfecting those Cheeks!” Duff captioned an Instagram post with the photos. “I Have been dreaming of holding you in my arms for months and the past 5 days of getting to know you, stare at you and smell you has been pure moments of magic.

Koma also shared a post on his Instagram, paying tribute to the mother of his children and joking about their new daughter’s appearance. “My literal warrior goddess of a wife gave birth to our beautiful Townes Meadow Bair at home on 5/3/24. She’s happy, healthy, chunky and looks like nobody in our genetic pool so if anyone knows of @hilaryduff’s whereabouts roughly 9 months ago to date, please reach out for a cash reward,” he wrote alongside the same beautiful photos.
