Baby number 3 due in a matter of weeks.

Congratulations to them both, a new baby is a gift.

BlueBelle Fri 19-May-23 17:19:26

A baby is a gift, the parents are not always as much of a gift though
Baby number 3 I think that’s baby number 6 or is it 7 for Johnson !!

Let’s hope we don’t have too much gushing about this like we had with baby no1.

Louella12 Fri 19-May-23 17:22:20

That is lovely news.

Didn’t notice she looked pregnant at the Coronation.

Will have another look.

Congratulations to Mr & Mrs Johnson, hope they have a healthy, happy baby.

Carrie looked very pregnant at the coronation and there was speculation. It was suggested that the wind had blown her dress up. hmm

Good for them. Boris Johnson can afford a large family, and has said that he loves babies and children. Our GP, about thirty years ago, also loved children - he had eleven, and a wonderfully happy family.

I read somewhere, may even have been in a previous thread similar to this one, that BJ himself has said he has four children with his ex-wife and another one born in 2009 from an affair, so this will be number eight.

Why is this news on BBC News? Doh!

BlueBelle Fri 19-May-23 18:26:38

Mrsmemo unfortunately he doesn’t seem to have paid much attention to the rest of his previous babies (children) any man
(I was close to writing another word but don’t want to get deleted) can make a baby

Why not? It’s news, not an episode of The Simpsons .

For the alternative version, read the thread on Mumsnet. It’s hilarious!

Baggs Fri 19-May-23 18:31:35

I'm looking forward to finding out the names of this new baby.

True.
Maybe this time round he is enjoying spending more time with his latest offspring.

Ninth I think

Ladyleftfieldlover Fri 19-May-23 19:10:08

Yes, I’m pretty sure it’s the 9th.

Not on Mumsnet, but had a peep - hilarious responses with many saying they would have to be blind drunk to 'sleep' with him!

I think it is actually baby number at least 9.

That has just ruined my coffee.🤢

MayBee70 Fri 19-May-23 19:48:26

No wonder he’s had to buy a multi million pound property in Oxfordshire. Good job he can get huge amounts for these speeches he gives ( the ones he gives when he should be working in his constituency). And still many voters think he’s ‘one of them’. angry

Whitewavemark2 Fri 19-May-23 19:50:18

How come he can afford so many children, but not afford to pay his legal fees?

Deedaa Fri 19-May-23 20:39:54

Get people to pay ludicrous amounts of money to listen to your waffling word salads while others pay for your luxury holidays and you can afford any number of unfortunate children.

SueDonim Fri 19-May-23 20:52:03

I thought this was going to be a thread about a Johnson & Johnson’s baby talc and lotion advert. confused I’ll get me coat.

Siope Fri 19-May-23 20:56:28

I keep seeing headlines that say ‘Carrie Johnson having baby in a few weeks’ and wondering why she has a much shorter gestation than the rest of us.
