Keira Knightley became a mum to a little girl three months ago, and while she’s been spotted enjoying motherhood with her new arrival, the new mummy remained tight-lipped on her daughter’s name.
Until now that is.
The Imitation Game actress appears on the cover of Elle magazine to celebrate its 30 birthday, and she gushes over motherhood and lack of sleep and reveals that her daughter is called Edie.
Keira, who has bounced back into impeccable shape, wears a smoking hot Ralph Lauren Collection leather jacket and calfskin belt, and is body confident in a pair of black swim bottoms.
Of her daughter, who she shares with husband James Righton, Keira said: "The love thing is astonishing. It's a very primal, primal love. That's quite extraordinary.
"And the ability to have no sleep and continue going. It's not pleasant - I never thought that I could actually do it for the amount of time that I've done it."
Pirates of the Caribbean star, who was furious that her body had been Photoshopped for a movie’s promotional artwork.
"Also, I have to say, as a woman, you hate certain parts of your body. You go through those periods where you look in the mirror and you think, Oh, if only I had different legs or arms or whatever," Keira said.
"You go through pregnancy and labor and then feeding the kid and you go, Wow, my body is totally amazing, and I'm never going to not like it again, because it did this, and this is f--king extraordinary."
In May, it was revealed that the actress had given birth, previously joking about her birthing plan while appearing on The Ellen DeGeneres show during her pregnancy.
“There isn’t an option to sort of keep it in, is there?" she joked.
"So, I'm assuming my plan is to get it out. But apparently there's more to the plan than that. I don't know what that is. Still, my plan is to get it out. It will come out.
