Katy Perry gave birth to her baby girl with her loving fiancé Orlando
Bloom. The couple have said they are “floating with love and wonder”
following the birth of their first child together, with them revealing they
have named her Daisy Dove Bloom.
Katy, 35 and actor Orlando, 43, took the unusual step of announcing the
birth through Unicef, with the pair being goodwill ambassadors for the charity.
The couple in their statement said,”We are floating with love and
wonder from the safe and healthy arrival of our daughter,” the couple said
in statement, alongside a black and white picture of them holding Daisy’s tiny
hand.
Their statement continued: “But we know we’re the lucky ones and not
everyone can have a birthing experience as peaceful as ours was. “Communities
around the world are still experiencing a shortage of healthcare workers and
every eleven seconds a pregnant woman or newborn dies, mostly from preventable
causes.
“Since Covid-19, many more newborn lives are at risk because of a
greater lack of access to water, soap, vaccines and medicines that prevent
diseases.
“As parents to a newborn, this breaks our hearts, as we empathise with
struggling parents now more than ever.”
The couple said they have set up a donation page to mark Daisy’s birth,
with the money going towards new mothers and their children.
Orlando is already a dad to his nine-year-old son Flynn with ex-wife
Miranda Kerr.
But their newborn is his first ever “daddy’s little girl” and
first child with Katy.
