Kate Upton has given birth to her first child with husband Justin Verlander
It’s a baby girl!
Kate Upton and her husband Justin Verlander have announced the arrival of their first child together and it’s a little girl.
Kate, a 26-year-old model and actress, announced that she was pregnant with her first child back in July.
She confirmed her happy news with an adorable Instagram post and has revealed the birth of her daughter in the same manner.
Kate and Justin’s daughter was born on Wednesday 7 November but the couple waited until Saturday to share the news with the world. The proud mother-of-one posted an adorable black and white close up of her little girls’ hand and face with a simple caption revealed her name and birthday.
Kate and Justin have chosen Genevieve, which is quite a unique name, and isn’t listed in the top baby names list for 2018.
The couple haven’t revealed if their daughter has any additional middle names but she has taken on both of her parents' surnames.
Kate has six million followers on Instagram so it is of no surprise that her sweet post has proved very popular and quickly amassed over 300,000 likes and 4,000 comments.
