British Prime Minister Boris Johnson and his partner Carrie Symonds have taken to Instagram to announce their baby’s name and share their son’s first photo.
“We present Wilfred Lawrie Nicholas Johnson, born 04.29.20 at 9 a.m.,” Symonds wrote on his Instagram.
“Wilfred after Boris’ grandfather, Lawrie after my grandfather, Nicholas after Dr. Nick Price and Dr. Nick Hart, the two doctors who saved Boris’s life last month.
“Thank you so much to the amazing NHS maternity team at UCLH who took such good care of us. I couldn’t be happier. My heart is full.”
Wilfred was born Wednesday morning, just 16 days after Johnson, 55, fought for his life in intensive care with Covid-19.
Symonds also suffered from coronavirus but has since made a full recovery.
The baby was born healthy, several weeks before her due date. Johnson is understood to have been there to witness the birth.
The British Prime Minister will take paternity leave later in the year, once the country has a better handle on the coronavirus crisis.
