The artist made the big announcement through Instagram
Alanis Morissette revealed her and husband Mario Treadway welcomed another child into their family late last month. They named her Onyx Solace Morissette-Treadway.
Morissette wrote via Instagram, “She’s here! Onyx Solace Morissette-Treadway June 23 2016 #beyondblessed.”
The couple has a five-year-old son and announced they were expecting again earlier this year. They made the announcement using a song and animated video, followed by them looking at n ultrasound image.
“The story of my nuclear family in moving pictures, brings us up to this sweet moment. [The song was] written, recorded and produced in 6 hours on May 22, 2010 with Guy Sigsworth, on the sly, to surprise Souleye. Brendan Huza helped tell our story. May this song take on ever-deepening meaning as each year goes by,” Morissette shared on her website.
The 42-year-old artist is currently working on a book that is not only a memoir, but also includes some “straight-up teaching.” Regarding her recent endeavor, she shared, “I’ve always had a little of a blind spot around how I am perceived. But there’s uniformity now. This may be a crass way of understanding it, but there’s something about even looking at my own Instagram, looking at my blog, where I’m getting a sense of self that I never had.”
The Hand in My Pocket hitmaker also feels her priorities have changed since becoming a mother.
Reflecting about when she started in the entertainment industry, she said, “All due respect to the geniuses that were around me, I felt like a bit of an outsider. I tried really hard to fit in and belong and have BFFs that were famous. It could have had something to do with the time period. It wasn’t 2016; it was the ’90s and early 2000s.
It was a different time for women in music. I would awkwardly phone different celebrities to see if we could be friends. And a lot of times I would be met with, ‘Why are you calling me?’ I guess people don’t call people just to become friends with them.”
