Lily Allen and Sam Cooper welcome baby girl Marnie Rose

Singer Lily Allen and husband Sam Cooper, a building company owner, have welcomed daughter Marnie Rose into the world in London, the singer confirms to US Weekly. Allen and Cooper began dating in 2009 and were wed in 2010.

This is the second child for the couple; they gave birth to daughter Ethel Mary in November 2011 and were pregnant again just a couple months later. Two healthy daughters is good news indeed for the British singer, who had previously suffered two miscarriages. She thanks all of her fans on her Twitter feed:

"Quite overwhelmed by all the well wishing going on. THANKYOU everybody x x x."
