Actress Rebel Wilson announces birth of first child by surrogate

Australian actress Rebel Wilson has announced the birth of her first child via surrogate.

The Bridesmaids star, 42, posted a picture on Instagram on Monday, welcoming her daughter Royce Lillian to the world.

She wrote: "Beyond proud to announce the birth of my first child, Royce Lillian, born this past week via surrogate. I can't even describe the love I have for her, she's a beautiful miracle!"

The Pitch Perfect star previously spoke publicly about wanting to have children, revealing that she had frozen her eggs in 2019.

She added: "I am forever grateful to everyone who has been involved, (you know who you are), this has been years in the making… but particularly wanted to thank my gorgeous surrogate who carried her and birthed her with such grace and care. Thank you for helping me start my own family, it's an amazing gift. The BEST gift!!

"I am ready to give little Roycie all the love imaginable. I am learning quickly… much respect to all the mums out there! Proud to be in your club."

Ms Wilson previously revealed that she was in a relationship with a woman, Ramona Agruma, a clothing brand owner.

The actress joins Elton John, and both Kim and Khloe Kardashian, as celebrities who have had children via surrogacy.
