Bobby Brown and wife Alicia Etheredge welcome baby girl

A little sunshine has broken through the Brown family's dark cloud, as Bobby Brown and wife Alicia Etheredge welcomed a baby girl on Saturday.

Etheredge was admitted to Cedars-Sinai Hospital in Los Angeles on Friday night and induced Saturday.

Brown and Etheredge have been married since 2012. The newborn is Etheredge's second child, joining the couple's five-year-old son Cassius, and Bobby's sixth.

The baby news is bittersweet, as Brown has had a very difficult few months coping with the tragedy that struck his 22-year-old daughter Bobbi Kristina Brown.

Bobbi Kristina has been in hospice care since mid-June. She was found unresponsive in her bathtub in Roswell, Georgia, on January 31, and placed in a medically-induced coma for nearly five months before being moved to the hospice facility in nearby Duluth.

See video from Brown's most recent performance in Atlanta, where he admits to being in a "different zone right now," here.
