Paula Yates gave birth to her fourth child yesterday - another daughter, named Heavenly Hiraani Tiger Lily. The father, INXS star Michael Hutchence, who was present at the birth, said it was the "proudest moment" of his life and added that he was "very proud of Paula".

The 6lb baby was born at the Chelsea home of Bob Geldof, Paula's ex-husband, after a strange house swapping divorce settlement arranged for Geldof to move to Hutchence's nearby home. A half-sister to Paula and Geldof's daughters, Fifi Trixibelle, Peaches and Pixie, the new baby will be known as Hiraani. The name was chosen by Australian Hutchence, and is a Polynesian girl's name. "Paula is ecstatic and the baby is quite beautiful," said Gerry Agar, a close friend.
