Luke Hemmings and Sierra Deaton Welcome First Daughter, Seek Privacy

Luke Hemmings and Sierra Deaton have welcomed their first child, a daughter, announcing the news in a joint Instagram post on Aug. 22. The couple shared a carousel of intimate images, including photos of their newborn’s hands and feet and a maternity portrait of Deaton, while also posting a short video of Hemmings kissing his wife’s baby bump. The post carried the line “Our best kept secret,” and the couple asked for privacy, noting they do not plan to reveal their child’s name, birthdate, or face in the near future.

In the accompanying message, Hemmings explained why they chose to disclose the arrival publicly at this juncture. He wrote that while they would have preferred to keep their daughter’s existence private, “going into this next album cycle I’m very aware that her existence would inevitably leak.” To mitigate speculation and protect their child’s privacy, he asked fans and media to refrain from sharing or publishing photos of the baby in public, and to respect their decision not to reveal identifying details. The message was echoed by Sierra and Luke in the caption, underscoring their stance as they embark on a new phase in their careers.
