Boris, Carrie Johnson announce birth of second baby

The British prime minister and his wife welcomed their second child on Thursday.

Boris and Carrie Johnson's spokesperson announced the birth of a healthy baby girl at a London hospital.

"Both mother and daughter are doing very well. The couple would like to thank the brilliant NHS maternity team for all their care and support," the statement said.

Carrie Johnson gave birth to a baby boy in a London hospital in April 2020, the first child for the couple who married in May this year.

Johnson has four children with his ex-wife Marina Wheeler, a child born in 2009 from an affair with art consultant Helen Macintyre, and now two children with his current wife.
