Oscar winner Kevin Costner has become a father for the seventh time, after his wife giving birth to a baby girl.

The actor and sometime director and his wife, Christine Baumgartner Costner, 36, welcomed a baby girl named Grace Avery Costner on Wednesday, the actor's representative told People magazine.

The new addition marks the star's third child with the German model and handbag designer. They married in 2004.

The actor's spokesman gave few details but stated that: "Both mother and daughter are doing well."

The couple announced the pregnancy in March.

Grace's siblings are Hayes Logan, 16 months, Cayden Wyatt, 3, Liam, 13, Joe, 22, Lily, 23, and Annie, 25.

Costner became one of Hollywood's most successful actors in the 1980s and 1990s with leading roles in 'The Untouchables', 'No Way Out', 'Field of Dreams', 'Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves', 'JFK' and 'The Bodyguard'.

His directoral debut, 'Dances With Wolves' in 1990, saw him walk home with Oscars for Best Picture and Director as well as a nomination for Best Actor.
