He's the hottest star in Hollywood, but the most important role for Robert Downey Jr. is that of father.
Today, the
Iron Man actor welcomed a baby girl with producer wife Susan Downey and it didn't take long before the screen superhero took to the Internet to share his joy with waiting fans.
The
Avengers star posted a special message to over 22 million fans on Facebook, saying:
"After 9 months of intensive development, Team Downey is pleased to announce our 2014 fall/winter project.
Principal photography commenced 11-14 and will continue until she says, "Dad! You are embarrassing me...I'm 30, this has gotta stop."
Yep...Avri Roel Downey joined the party @ 3:22 a.m. on November 4th...she's 7lbs even, spans 20 inches, and is accompanied by a variety of Susan's traits that have seemingly overwritten my "junk DNA."
I'll post pics here + there when I'm not too busy staring..."
He posted a brief but equally sweet message on Twitter.
We can't help but suspect there is a Daddy's Girl in the making. Congrats to the very happy parents.
