The 64-year-old singer and guitarist has added a new member to his growing brood.

Roland Orzabal is best known as a singer, songwriter and a guitarist for the group, Tears for Fears.

He is the only constant member of the band which has had five albums to land in the top five in the UK charts.

Now Roland has welcomed a baby girl with his second wife Emily who is 26-years his junior.

Emily previously shared a photo of herself cradling her baby bump as she stood against a picturesque nature backdrop.

She wore a striped white and brown dress as she stood next to an array of flowers in decorative terracotta pots in June.

However, Curt Smith – who is the bandmate of Roland in Tears For Fears – confirmed the birth of his daughter in an August interview with Vulture.

He told the outlet: “We were going to tour this summer, but Roland and his wife had a baby in June.

“So the summer touring obviously was off because you don’t want to be away from home that close to having a baby.”

It seems the name of the tot was confirmed in the comments section as family and friends issued their well wishes.

One user wrote: “Congratulations to you & Roland on the birth of Eula.”

A second stated: “Ohhhh, Emily! I just knew this was coming! How thrilling for you both and the entire family! So much love being sent to you, Roland and the baby!”

“The glow and beauty of being a mother… Aww, congratulations to you both,” gushed a third fan.

While a fourth wrote: “Sending love and congratulations to the happy couple on their newest family member!”

They added: “May this sweet gift bring them boundless joy, cherished moments, and a heart full of love. Blessed child!”

The duo secretly eloped in 2020 as they tied the knot on Aspen Mountain in Colorado.

They had to postpone the original plan for their nuptials due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Roland married his first wife, Caroline Johnston back in 1982 after dating her in his teenage years.

She was involved in the group, having sung a vocal on the group’s track, Suffer The Children which was on their debut album, The Hurting.

The duo welcomed two sons together before she died in July 2017 at the age of 54-years-old.

Along with a number of number one albums, Tears For Fears had seven top five singles in the UK.

Although their hit track Shout reached number four in the UK, it shot to number one in territories such as Australia, Belgium, Canada, Germany, Netherlands, New Zealand and the United States.

Their next track, Everybody Wants to Rule the World, went to number two in the UK and number one in the US, Canada and New Zealand.
