Actress Anne Hathaway Gives Birth to Baby Boy

Los Angeles: US actress Anne Hathaway has become a first-time mother after giving birth to a baby boy, her spokesman told AFP on Thursday.

The Oscar-winning star gave birth to her first child, Jonathan Rosebanks Shulman, on March 24 in Los Angeles, according to celebrity news outlet E!

Ms Hathaway confirmed earlier this year that she and her husband, actor Adam Shulman, were expecting a baby by posting a photo on Instagram that revealed her baby bump. (Also Read: Anne Hathaway Debuts Baby Bump on Shopping Expedition)

US media, however, had already leaked the news in November.

Happy 2016 to my beautiful Instafriends! So, posting a bikini pic is a little out of character for me, but just now while I was at the beach I noticed I was being photographed. I figure if this kind of photo is going to be out in the world it should at least be an image that makes me happy (and be one that was taken with my consent. And with a filter :) Wishing you love, light and blessings for the year ahead!Annie
