In April, “Orange Is the New Black” and “The Handmaids Tale” actress Samira Wiley (35) and screenwriter Lauren Morelli (38) welcome their first child together.
However, the news did not become known until last week, when the couple shared the news in connection with Mother’s Day in the USA. On Sunday, Wiley shared that the couple had become the parents of a little girl on April 11.
“Happy Mother’s Day to my beautiful wife, who four weeks ago today gave birth to our first child – our beautiful daughter, George,” Wiley wrote in an Instagram photo of the newborn daughter.
At the same time, they were able to reveal that the daughter has been given the name George Elizabeth – something that has made the fans scratch their heads.
