Pop singer Jax, known for her hit song “Victoria’s Secret”, has welcomed her first child, exactly ten years after rising to fame on American Idol. The 29-year-old artist announced on May 24, 2025, that she and her husband, music video director Braverijah “Brave” Gregg, became parents to a baby girl on May 20.

Jax told Madden that she and Gregg had decided early in their relationship to name their future daughter after the band. “We have always said, since we started dating and knew we were gonna end up together, we’d name our daughter after Good Charlotte and name her Charlotte Good,” she said. When Madden asked in surprise, “Really?” she confirmed, “Charlotte Good Gregg, yeah.”
She added that the baby would likely go by “Charlie Good” and that they had already recorded video messages for her. Madden responded warmly, “That is so sweet!”
Many celebrities joined in celebrating the news. Actress and former Nickelodeon star Daniella Monet wrote, “Peanut!!!! Congrats mama, you did it ” Fellow American Idol alum Lauren Alaina, who is also expecting her first child, commented, “Congrats to you guys. She is beautiful. ”

We will never forget how amazing they were.”
Jax first gained national attention during Season 14 of American Idol, where she placed third behind Clark Beckham and winner Nick Fradiani. In 2021, she signed with Atlantic Records. The following year, her single “Victoria’s Secret” became a breakout success, earning her widespread acclaim.
