Boris Johnson and wife Carrie welcome arrival of fourth child
Former prime minister Boris Johnson and his wife Carrie Johnson have welcomed a fourth baby to the family.
The former leader of the Conservative Party can be seen holding his daughter, Poppy Eliza Josephine Johnson, in an Instagram post shared on Saturday.
Mrs Johnson shared a carousel of photographs announcing the news, adding that their baby was born on May 21 and that they are 'totally smitten'.
In the caption, Mrs Johnson wrote: '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.'
The couple were married in May 2021 at Westminster Cathedral and share three children, Wilfred, Romy and Frank, with Poppy joining as the 'final gang member'.
Mr and Mrs Johnson had their first child, Wilfred, in April 2020, in the early months of the Covid-19 crisis.
Mrs Johnson added: '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.
'Back from hospital now and time for cocktails and pizza with my tiny baby snoozing on my lap. Life doesn't get any better.'
Johnson, 60, also shares four children with his ex-wife, lawyer Marina Wheeler, and a child, born in 2009, as a result of an affair with art consultant Helen Macintyre.
Succeeding from Theresa May, Johnson was prime minister from July 2019 until his resignation in September 2022.

And now the divisive shower curtain mania is back, with many thrifty homeowners proudly showing off their fence makeovers on the cheap.

While this is indeed a wallet-friendly option for a quick and easy transformation, it's sparked a fierce debate online - with critics dubbing the look ''terrible''. But despite the backlash, it looks like plastic shower curtains are here for yet another season - whether some like it or not. One place where the garden trend has returned is the popular Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK group, with dozens of Brits proudly showing off their outdoor glow-ups. One person, Remi Mason, said their mum had attached eBay shower curtains to her fence - which now featured a faux waterfall effect. Although the photos were allegedly submitted to the group in lockdown, it wasn't until recently the post was approved - and heaps of others revealed they'd jumped on the trend too. A fellow member, Lynnsey Wilson, uploaded a snap of her upgraded garage - that was now hiding behind a cottage-feel curtain. ''I've done this,'' said Tania Denning, who had attached a shower curtain featuring the Buddha in front of a gorgeous flower display. Meanwhile, Debbie Joynt opted for a more tropical design to cover the unsightly garage. If you too are keen to spruce up your garden this season on the cheap, the options for affordable shower curtains are endless - and there are heaps of prints to choose from. I hate my new build garden being overlooked so found a 5 METRE privacy fence to block out nosy neighbours for under £30 While some Facebook users found budget-friendly versions from Shein for less than £8, the China-based marketplace offers even cheaper ones - for as little as £2. Rival Temu also has a mega variety of shower curtains for a garden overhaul - some cheap picks include a rainforest-themed curtain for just £6 or even a hidden oasis one for £7.

Brooklyn first got this ink back in 2017 - as a tribute to his mum Victoria. At the time, he shared a gym selfie where the words could be seen on the left side of his chest. However, the new images appear to show his updated tattoo of flowers covering up the poignant homage. He also opened up to the publication about his connection with wife Nicola - whom he wed in 2022. Brooklyn shared: "When I first saw Nicola at Coachella, I was immediately captivated - by her beauty, her warmth, her charisma. "Even though it was only a fleeting moment, it stayed with me for a long time." He then added: "You have to marry your best friend, someone you feel at home with. For me, Nicola is exactly that." Brooklyn and Nicola first sparked rumours of a huge rift between them and Brooklyn's parents when they snubbed all of David's 50th birthday celebrations earlier this year. Budding photographer Brooklyn also previously fell out with his parents shortly after his marriage to Nicola. Beckhams fear there's no way back with Brooklyn after his latest move in bitter feud 'drove dagger through their hearts' With a fresh clash in full swing, experts have told The Sun how the eldest of the Beckham clan has chosen his wife over his mega-famous family. He also took to Instagram to wish Will Peltz a happy birthday as he turned 39. Brooklyn shared a photo of them on a night out, writing: 'Happy birthday Will Peltz, love you buddy,' to which Will replied: 'Ayee love you bro.' The dig came on the day the final episode of his dad's chat show Beckham & Friends aired. 5 Brooklyn and Nicola took part in a stunning photoshoot for Credit: © The Morelli Brothers/Glamour Germany 5 The couple are rumoured to have had a rift with Brooklyn's famous parents Credit: AFP Have YOU got a story or an amazing picture or video?
