Carrie Johnson gave birth to third child with Boris: The ex-PM’s wife reveals she has a second son named ‘Frank Arthur Odysseus’ (or Frankie for short) in adorable Instagram snap
Boris and Carrie Johnson have welcomed their third child together, a baby boy named Frank Alfred Odysseus Johnson – or Frankie in his family.
Ms Johnson, 35, made the announcement this afternoon on Instagram, where she shared photos of the newborn, Mr Johnson’s eighth child and Carrie’s second son.
Alongside the photos, the former prime minister’s wife – who is already mum to Wilfred, three, and Romy, 18 months – revealed the newborn’s arrival and names with a series of adorable photos.
Dressed in a white dress, Carrie is seen holding the baby and looking at him in admiration. She also shared pictures of Frankie being tucked in by his big brother Wilf and lying happily in a Moses basket.
She wrote, “Welcome to the world Frank Alfred Odysseus Johnson born July 5 at 9:15 am. (Can you guess what name my husband chose?!)

“I love every minute of the sleepy baby bubble. It was wonderful to see my eldest two hug their new brother with such joy and excitement. We are all very sad.
‘Thank you so much to the incredible NHS maternity team at UCLH. They are truly the most amazing, caring people. I feel such immense gratitude.
Now, can anyone recommend good series/box sets to binge while breastfeeding?
‘Time for a drink’.
The baby is the couple’s third together, but Daily Mail columnist Mr Johnson’s eighth. The former prime minister has four children from his marriage to lawyer Marina Wheeler. He also has a fifth child, Stephanie Macintyre, with art consultant Helen Macintyre.
The Johnson’s have named Wilfred after Mr Johnson’s grandfather, one of his middle names Lawrie is after her own grandfather and his other was Nicholas, after a doctor who treated the former MP while he was battling Covid at St Thomas’s Hospital in London.
Their daughter Romy was named after Mrs. Johnson’s aunt Rosemary, her middle name Iris is Greek for rainbow and her third name Charlotte was a tribute to Mr. Johnson’s late mother.

In May, Ms Johnson announced she was expecting her third child, adding that the arrival was just weeks ago.
She shared her news on Instagram, saying she’s been feeling “pretty drained” for the past eight months, adding, “we can’t wait to meet this little one” in a few weeks.
“Wilf is very excited to be a big brother again and has been chatting non-stop.
‘Don’t think that Romy has any idea what’s to come. She will soon.’
The baby’s arrival is just over three years after Ms Johnson gave birth to her first son, Wilfred.
And in December 2021, they welcomed their daughter Romy, whom Ms Johnson described as their “rainbow baby” following her miscarriage a year earlier.
The couple moved to Oxfordshire earlier this year after Johnson stepped down as prime minister last September.
Mr. Johnson and Mrs. Wheeler’s children are all in their twenties – Lara Lettice is 20, Milo Arthur is 27,
Cassia Peaches, 25 and Theodore Apollo, 23.
He also has another daughter from a relationship with art consultant Helen McIntyre.
Carrie is already mother to Wilfred, three, and Romy, 18 months
