Britainâs Boris Johnson and Carrie Symonds are having a baby. And engaged.
The baby is due in early summer, and it was not immediately known whether the couple will wed before or after the birth. Symonds, 31, is one of youngest partners of a prime minister in centuries, the BBC reported, and Johnson will be the first prime minister to marry while in office in nearly 200 years. At 55, the mop-headed prime minister is almost a quarter-century older than his fiancee. Though he won't be the the first serving prime minister to have a baby while in office, it is not common. David Cameron and his wife, Samantha, had a daughter in 2010, shortly after Cameron became prime minister. Before that, Tony Blair and his wife, Cherie, had a son in 2000, three years into Blair's decade in office. Prior to Blair, no serving prime minister became a parent for more than 150 years. Symonds wrote a message on her Instagram account, admitting, "I wouldn't normally post this kind of thing on here but I wanted my friends to find out from me.&qu
