A number of fans also pointed out a sweet detail in one of the photos, with Tom wearing a t-shirt emblazoned with ‘Waltzing Matilda’ while holding Matilda in his arms.

“Being from Australia it is pretty cool to see that you picked that name and then to see the Waltzing Matilda t-shirt was pretty cool,” one person commented. “You will have to sing the song to her or hum the tune to her so she learns it. It’s our unofficial national anthem but it is now her song too.”

“As a fellow Australian, I agree. Love the name,” someone else said, followed by another Australian who added, “And just like that little Matilda became one of us. Congrats to her parents”.

Kaley and Tom, who stars in Ozark and Outer Range, first went public with their relationship in May last year and announced their pregnancy five months later.

The Flight Attendant actress, who was previously married to Ryan Sweeting and Karl Cook, told Extra in October that she and Tom met because they share the same management team.

“My manager actually took me as her guest to the Ozark premiere, and I met him there,” she shared. “It was like the angels started singing. I was like, ‘Hallelujah’. It was very magical… It was perfect.”
