Keith Richards, 82, has added another grandchild to his growing brood after his daughter Theodora quietly welcomed a baby boy more than four months ago.
The 41-year-old model, whose mother is The Rolling Stones guitarist’s wife Patti Hansen, kept the arrival under wraps until today, when she took to social media to share the happy news.
The infant, named Tarka Nathaniel Richards Burnett, was born on April 9 this year.
It marks the eighth grandchild for the legendary rocker, who has also recently become a great-grandfather for the first time.
In her post, Theodora shared her delight at the new addition, writing: “Tarka Nathaniel Richards Burnett has been rocking our lives now for almost 5 months. Born April 9th 2026.”
She added: “Him and Gus are fierce best bro buds @oscarnaburnett and myself could not be happier that this family keeps growing and loving as hard as we do.
“Very blessed as we take on all this next life chapter has to offer. My smiley guy.”
Theodora and her partner Oscar Burnett already have a son, Augustus, who arrived in May 2024.
Among the photographs she posted was one showing Tarka dressed in a white babygrow with his big brother also in shot.
Well-wishers quickly flooded the comments with messages of support.
Leah Wood, daughter of fellow Rolling Stones guitarist Ronnie Wood, penned: “Oooh yes!!! These guys are the next chapter to a very cool legacy…. May they be as cool as their grandparents and funny for the rest of their lives!!! Long live growth rock and roll and BABIES!!!! Yay!!!!! Gurl, you’ve got this!! Baby momma.” (sic)
Poppy Delevingne, 40, who herself became a mother to a daughter last year, also offered her congratulations, commenting: “Mama Theo! Your boys are perfect! So thrilled for you guys. Love & miss you.”

The arrival of Tarka was not the only joyful family news for Keith this year.
In May, the guitarist became a great-grandfather when his granddaughter Ella, 30, gave birth to a daughter called Luna.
Ella is the child of Keith’s eldest son Marlon Richards, 56, and former model and stylist Lucie de la Falaise, a niece of the renowned Yves Saint Laurent muse Loulou de la Falaise.
Marlon’s mother was the late actress and model Anita Pallenberg, who passed away in 2017 at the age of 75.
Ella’s boyfriend, Sascha, is the younger brother of Count Nikolai von Bismarck, 39, the photographer and former partner of Kate Moss, both descendants of the 19th-century German chancellor Otto von Bismarck.
When Ella announced her pregnancy in the spring, the five-time father responded on social media: “Sending love and looking forward to welcoming my first great-grandchild!”
