First comes love, then comes marriages, then comes the baby… Well, you know how this thing goes. Congratulations are in order for actor Eddie Redmayne and his wife Hannah Bagshawe, for they just welcomed their first child into the world and we have no doubt that she’s a cutie. Yup, that’s right — Redmayne and Bagshawe are now the proud parents of a little girl! What a picture-perfect first Father’s Day for Redmayne!
Last December, the British couple celebrated their first wedding anniversary with the happiest of news: A source close to the pair spilled the beans to The Sun that Redmayne and Bagshawe were expecting their first child. “Eddie and Hannah are delighted and extremely excited,” the source revealed. “They don’t want to find out the sex of the baby, but are happy to tell close friends and family they’re expecting.” Well, we know that their baby is a little girl and we couldn’t be happier for the new parents!
The U.K. newspaper The Times announced that The Theory of Everything star’s bride gave birth to their first daughter on Wednesday, June 15, who they decided to name — wait for it… — Iris May Redmayne. Pretty, classic, and just so gosh darn adorable — we’re loving the name!
Back in 2014, Redmayne and Bagshawe wed in a hush-hush ceremony at the luxe Babington House in Somerset, England, full of romantic candlelight and winter wonderland snow. “It’s been extraordinary,” Redmayne previously told People magazine of his relationship with his beautiful wife. “She is an absolute saint and it’s a ride for both of us. It’s wonderful doing it with someone you love because you also have a second eye on it all.”
Sounds like it’s been a whirlwind romance for these two and we can’t wait to watch this next amazing step unfold!
