Luxe Models
were over the moon to hear that Kate Winslet has given birth to a healthy baby
boy at an NHS hospital in Sussex. The 9lb bundle of joy is her first with
husband Ned RocknRoll and her third child over all.
The couple
have been married for about a year now, having wed last December in New York,
18 months after they met. Ned RocknRoll is the nephew of billionaire tycoon
Richard Branson. Born Abel Smith, he was formerly married to socialite Eliza
Pearson. He changed his name by deed poll in 2008. He is employed at Virgin
Galactic, Richard Branson’s space travel company, where he holds the title of Marketing
Promotion and Astronaut Experience.
Winslet and
RocknRoll were wed in an intimate ceremony just before Christmas last year, so
intimate that apparently neither one of them told their parents! Kate’s two
older children, Mia and Joe were there however, and rumour has it her Titanic co-star Leonardo DiCaprio gave
her away.
Some sceptics
have suggested that Kate is perhaps a bit of a “love-o-holic”, who enjoys being
swept up in the romance of a new relationship, but the Luxe Models team reckons they’re total cynics! Ned and Kate seem
really happy together and they’re no doubt going to have a great Christmas
together with their darling addition.
We can’t
wait to find out what they name him and whether or not he’ll take the surname
of Winslet or RocknRoll…we know which one we’d prefer! For more stories like
