Carey Mulligan confirms birth of baby girl! Congratulations Carey and Marcus

Baby girls are the best kind of baby. Except for the other ones

Carey Mulliagn

Published on

Suffragette Carey Mulligan has revealed that she’s the mother of a little baby girl, hooray!

Carey confirmed both that she’d given birth to the tiny human and the baby’s sex on The Graham Norton Show.

“It’s a girl!” she told Graham, and our hearts melted.

More news!

    Carey, who’s married to folk rocker Marcus Mumford from Mumford and Sons, didn’t talk about being pregnant at all, as is her right, although speculation was rife that she was expecting when she took to wearing various stylish Muumuus on various red carpets.

    Nice Muumuu

    Carey, who gave birth just three weeks ago, has gone straight back to work promoting her new film about the struggle of women to gain equal voting rights with men.

    Flaming Nora, we once had three weeks off work with a particularly nasty cold.

    Hats off, Carey.
