British Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s fiancee, Carrie Symonds, has given birth to a baby boy, PA Media reported. Both mother and child are doing well.
Johnson, 55, became the most high-profile world leader to contract COVID-19 one month ago. He spent a week in hospital, including three nights in intensive care, admitting in a video message after he was discharged that things “could have gone either way”.
After a fortnight recovering at his countryside retreat of Chequers, he returned to Downing Street on Sunday night.—AP
