The 39-year-old singer and his partner, Cailean O'Neill, shared the happy news on social media and revealed their newborn daughter is called Layla.
Taking to Instagram, Feehily shared a sweet snap of his bundle of joy being wheeled down a hospital corridor, while admitting that "we're the happiest dads in the world!"

The couple first announced that were expecting a baby via surrogate in May.
Feehily announced that he and his partner were set to become fathers to a baby girl during the band's second gig in Croke Park in July.
He also added that he "can't wait for her to grow up in this wonderful country".
In February, Feehily shared the identity of his partner along with announcing his engagement.
He said: "2019 has been so amazing to me so far," but the picture did not show his fiancé just an image of his hand placed over his boyfriend's, accompanied with the text:"2019 has been so amazing to me so far and it's only getting started! I wanted to be the first to say it... Engaged."
