Couple got married in May 2021
According to reports, the couple already has two children— three-year-old Wilf and one-and-a-half-year-old Romy. Wilf was born in April 2020, while Romy was born in December 2021. Johnson married 35-year-old Carrie, a British media consultant, in May 2021. This is the ex-PM's third marriage. Notably, this is the first time for the couple to welcome a child, with Johnson not being the prime minister.
Johnson has child from extramarital affair
Johnson has four children from his second marriage to Marina Wheeler, a lawyer by profession. Reportedly, he has another child from an extramarital affair with art consultant Helen Macintyre. In an interview with NBC in September 2021, Johnson confirmed he was the father of six children. His statement came before Romy's birth and after years of speculation about the count of his children.
