Keira Knightley had a girl

Erstwhile “Pirates of the Caribbean” star Keira Knightley became a mom last month for the first time, welcoming a baby with rock star husband James Righton. And while the new parents have been keeping quiet since then, reports are coming out now claiming that they had a baby girl — which is great news for Knightley, who previously talked about finding having a son to be a “terrifying” prospect.

“Somebody said to me the other day, the problem with boys is — sorry, this is horrible — but when you’re changing their nappies, you can get the wee in your face,” she told Ellen DeGeneres back in February. “And apparently they roll as well, so you have to try to stop them while you’re trying to grab something else in order to stop them peeing in your face. So that sounds quite interesting.” That’s one way to put it.
