New Zealand prime minister gives birth to baby girl: official
AUCKLAND, June 21, 2018 (BSS/AFP) – New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda
Ardern gave birth to a baby girl in an Auckland hospital Thursday, becoming
only the second world leader to do so while in office.
“I’m sure we’re going through all of the emotions new parents go through,
but at the same time feeling so grateful for all the kindness and best wishes
from so many people. Thank you,” the 37-year-old said in a statement.
She added that both mother and daughter were doing well.
