Dwayne Johnson becomes father again

Actor Dwayne Johnson and his partner Lauren Hashian have welcomed their daughter into the world. The baby is doing well.

The child, who is Johnson's second, was born on Wednesday.

An insider told eonline.com that Johnson was "very emotional and excited" to see the baby for the first time, and he and Hashian are "beyond happy for this next chapter in their lives".

This is the first child for the couple together and the second for Johnson, who has a 14-year-old daughter named Simone with former wife Dany Garcia.

No details about the baby, including her name and weight, have yet been revealed.

Hashian was hoping the little one wasn't going to be as well built as her partner.

She wrote on Instagram earlier this week: "Like Big Daddy says - Couldn't be prouder of all the kickass women she's going to have around her! And Men of course...#LetsJustHopeBigDaddyDoesnt lbBaby (sic)"

Hashian has been fairly quiet on social media since announcing her pregnancy, but said she had enjoyed every minute.

"I know I'm late to the party... Sometimes life gets full and busy in the best ways :)... So grateful and in awe of this time. To experience creating a little life is just incredible. This beautiful cycle of life and womanhood beginning again. (sic)," She also wrote.

The couple announced in September they were having their first child together and the 43-year-old wrestler-turned-actor said that last month they found out they are expecting a girl.
