February 2 was a big day for celebrity babies, it turns out. Two days after Kylie Jenner announced she welcomed her son on 2/2/22, model Rosie Huntington-Whiteley revealed that she and
her partner, actor Jason Statham, welcomed their second child, a baby girl, on the same day.
Huntington-Whiteley shared a photo of her daughter in her crib, sharing her name and birth date in the Instagram caption. “Isabella James Statham ?? 2.2.22,” Huntington-Whiteley wrote. Isabella joins 4-year-old big brother Jack.
Huntington-Whiteley kept much of her pregnancy private, but she did share some maternity looks on her Instagram from time to time.
Huntington-Whiteley spoke toELLE UK for its April 2021 issue about her life with Statham and how his financial savvy really attracted her to him. “The fact that you just brought that up made me remember the first evening I ever met him and spent time with him. I remember calling my friend the next day and just being like, ‘Wow, he’s so unexpectedly not who I thought he’d be. He’s so grounded and humble, he’s really fun and charismatic and energetic,’” she recalled. “Those were all things I just wasn’t expecting about him and what drew me to him.”
“He knows the value of a pound,” she said. “And he understands what hard work gets you… He didn’t act until he was well into his thirties, so he had this big chunk of life where he was a painter and decorator and he was on the door of clubs and he was on the market stall, trading. So he’s got that real groundedness and I love the fact he will pass that on to our child as well.”
