Bruce Springsteen and Patti Scialfa have a lot to celebrate. Correction: Grandpa Bruce and Grandma Patti have a lot to celebrate.

Scialfa confirmed the news via Instagram by sharing two photos: The first showing son, Sam Springsteen, and the baby's mother, and the second photo of the new granddaughter. She captioned the post, "walking the baby_. Lily Harper Springsteen."

Scialfa's previous Instagram post showed Sam and his partner wearing a beautiful diamond ring and holding a bouquet of flowers. She captioned that post, "July 1, 2022 - beautiful day at the farm." It was not made clear whether the two new parents were married on that date, but it's certainly implied.

Sam Springsteen, 28, is the youngest of Bruce and Patti's three children. In January 2020, Sam was sworn into the Jersey City Fire Department.

We send congratulations and well wishes to the entire Springsteen family on the news of their newest member.
