The newborn will join brothers Cayden Wyatt, two, and Hayes Logan, 13 months.

Costner married German model Christine in 2004 after they had dated for four years.

He is looking to a busy few months ahead , as not only will he be welcoming his third child with Christine but also directing action adventure movie A Little War of Our Own.

He will also play a starring role in the film, which tells the story of a sheriff attempting to keep a town from descending into violence in World War II.
