This is her first child with boyfriend Danny Fujikawa.
Kate Hudson gave birth to her third child on Tuesday, the actress announced today.
In a series of Instagram pictures she posted Wednesday afternoon, she was proud to proclaim her newborn daughter Rani Rose Hudson-Fujikawa, who she shares with boyfriend Danny Fujikawa, has entered the world. It is the couple's first child together.
"She's here," she captioned a series of photos that kicked off with her newborn's birthday, October 2, 2018.
"We have decided to name our daughter Rani (pronounced Ronnie), after her grandfather, Ron Fujikawa," Hudson explained. "Ron was the most special man who we all miss dearly. To name her after him is an honor."
In another slide she added, "Everyone is doing well and happy as can be. Our family thanks you for all the love and blessings that have been sent our way and we send ours right back."

Hudson is already mom to Ryder Robinson, 14, and Bingham Hawn Bellamy, 6, who she shares with exes Chris Robinson and Matt Bellamy, respectively.
Kate and Fujikawa started dating in 2016, but have apparently known each other for some time. She's longtime friends with his stepsisters, Sara and Erin Foster.
"We have been in the same circle for over a decade," she posted on Instagram on their one-year anniversary in 2017. "A year ago today Danny took me on a hike and what I thought was just a hike with a family friend turned very quickly into an unexpected first date. No moves were made on this first date. In fact, it took months for him to make a first move! And as a kiss on this bridge would have been nice, the kiss a year later was so much sweeter. So on our 15th year of knowing each other we were able to open our hearts to each other to feel so much pure love and it's been truly incredible!"
