Social media influencer and entrepreneur Hannah Neeleman—known online as the face of popular social media account and business Ballerina Farm—has welcomed her ninth child with husband Daniel Neeleman.
The newborn arrived the night before the couple shared an update on Instagram with their millions of followers. They have not yet chosen a name.
"Just wanted to hop on here and say that last night we had a new addition to the family: baby number nine," Hannah, 35, said, while cradling their baby girl. "We’re beyond grateful to welcome this perfect miracle," she wrote in her caption.

The pregnancy was first announced in February via a ballet-inspired ad for the couple’s Farmer Protein powder.
While thousands of Instagram users poured in the comments to congratulate them on the announcement, others weren’t too thrilled.
Some users commented on Hannah’s appearance, saying the sparkle had dulled from her eyes. Others said they felt "bad" for her.
"Are you all blind, this is very very VERY WEIRD," one user wrote.
"It’s look like she don’t living life as she want. She living her husband’s dream life," added another.
Hannah has previously pushed back on being labeled a "trad wife," saying she does not identify with the term, even as her content highlights faith, family and self-sufficiency.
The newborn girl marks the Neelemans’ sixth daughter in a row, following their first three children, all boys.
Hannah, a Juilliard-trained ballerina and former Mrs. American titleholder, and Daniel, an entrepreneur and the son of JetBlue founder David Neeleman, run Ballerina Farm from their 328-acre property in Utah.
The brand has become synonymous with a nostalgic vision of American farm life—homegrown food, handmade goods and large-family living—earning the couple a devoted following of almost 11 million followers on Instagram between them.
The Neelemans are now parents to nine children. Their three sons are Henry, 13, Charles, 11, and George, 10. They also share five older daughters: Frances, 8, Lois, 6, Martha, 4, Mabel, 3, and Flora Jo, who turned 2 earlier this year. Flora Jo was born in January 2024, just days before Hannah competed in the Mrs. World pageant.
In the Instagram announcement, Daniel explained that Frances and Lois share birthdays two years apart—and that the new baby was originally due on the same day, narrowly missing what would have been a triple birthday milestone. "We almost had three," he joked.
For now, however, the Neeleman family is focused on welcoming its newest member. "We don’t have a name yet," Daniel said in the reel. "We’re working on that."
Newsweek reached out to Hannah Neeleman via the support email on the Ballerina Farm website.
