Charlize - who will celebrate her 40th birthday this week - currently lives in Los Angeles with her three-year-old son.
Back in May, the blonde beauty admitted she was "open" to having more children, but gave no hints she was planning on adopting again.
Asked if she would like more kids, she said: "Yeah. I mean, I'm so open to anything in my life. I was never like, 'Oh god no just one.' I was always kind of open to whatever kind of happens."
However, the new arrival comes just weeks after she split up with fellow actor Sean Penn who she had been dating since early 2014, with pals revealing the relationship "ended abruptly.
A source said: "As far as I know, Charlize won't talk to him. She just cut if off. They're absolutely done.
"[It] was very volatile. They both have intense personalities and are control freaks. He's a tough person, and she's no picnic either."
Another source said: "It ended abruptly. If you get on her bad side, she finds it hard to forgive."
