Helena Bonham Carter Welcomes Baby Daughter

The couple’s spokesperson reported to the public, “They are absolutely delighted they have a daughter. It’s a lovely Christmas present for the family.”

It’s the second child for the couple, who also have a four-year-old son named Billy.  During her pregnancy, the “Fight Club” actress told press, “I just can’t wait. It’s hard to imagine we can make anything other than Billy.”

Earlier in her pregnancy term, Helena joked that her new baby was growing tired of the constant rehearsals for her latest film “Sweeny Todd.” “Maybe the baby’s going to come out with his hands on his ears: ‘Shut up!’”

Carter even joked about her fluctuating breast size during the “Sweeny Todd” filming schedule, as it was done during different phases of her pregnancy.  “Anyone who pays attention to my chest size will see there’s no continuity.”

“The first half of filming I wasn’t pregnant, and the second half I was, and because we didn’t shoot it in order, I start off with huge breasts and then I walk upstairs and suddenly I’ve got tangerines again. It’s melons to tangerines!”
