"We are more than happy with the birth of Alena Rose Jonas. She's precious. We couldn't be more excited to begin our family together. We want to thank our families and friends for their love and support, and our fans for their good wishes," said the family.

"As one life ends, another begins. Incredibly happy to be an uncle for the first time. Welcome to this world my beautiful niece" wrote Joe Jonas on his Twitter account.
