Boris Johnson becomes father for the 9th time at 60 as wife announces birth of daughter Poppy

Former UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson became father for the 9th time at the age of 60 as wife Carrie Johnson announced the birth of daughter, Poppy Eliza Josephine Johnson, in an Instagram post shared on Saturday.

Poppy is Boris and Carrie's fourth baby, born on May 21. “Welcome to the world Poppy Eliza Josephine Johnson born on 21st May. I can’t believe how pretty and tiny you are. Feel so incredibly lucky. We are all totally smitten. Not sure I’ve slept a minute since you were born as can’t stop looking at how completely lovely you are.”Poppy is the final gang member, her mother announced in the Instagram message. The gang includes their other three children, Wilfred, Romy and Frank.

Wilfred is their first child, born in April 2020, during the Covid crisis. Daughter Romy was born in December 2021, again when Johnson was still Britain's prime minister.

“Wilf, Romy and Frank are utterly delighted, particularly Romy who was desperate for a little sister. Bring on the matching dresses. A final gang member," Carrie Johnson wrote.“Back from hospital now and time for cocktails and pizza with my tiny baby snoozing on my lap. Life doesn’t get any better.”Boris Johnson shared four children --Lara Lettice, Milo Arthur, Cassia Peaches, and Theodore Apollo-- with his ex-wife Marina Wheeler and is father to another child -- Stephanie-- with Helen Macintyre.
