The award-winning singer and her music executive husband Jordan Bratman welcomed their first child, who they have named Max Liron Bratman, into the world at 10.05pm on Saturday night (12.01.08).

Max, who weighed a healthy 6lbs 2oz and measured 20.5ins, was reportedly born via Caesarean section at Los Angeles’ Cedars Sinai Medical Center.

Christina’s representative confirmed the happy news on Saturday, saying: “Christina Aguilera and Jordan Bratman are proud to announce the birth of their son Max Liron Bratman. He is a beautiful, healthy baby boy. Mother is resting and doing well.”

The Come On Over Baby singer decorated her official website with blue balloons and wrote: “Today is a very joyful and special day for Jordan and I as we welcome our first son into this world.

“In honour of our love for each other and our growing family, I have put together a special video for the song Save Me from Myself off my Back to Basics album. This video is very dear to me as it includes actual footage from our personal wedding video!

“Just a little something to say ‘thank you’ for your undying love and support. It is in no small part because of you that I live such a blessed and wonderful life!”

Christina kept a low-profile throughout her pregnancy, only hinting she was about to enter “mommyhood” during an interview last November. Reports the star was expecting a boy were first sparked when guests at her baby shower arrived with blue-themed gifts.

Christina and Jordan married in Napa Valley, California, in 2005.
