Kurt Russell and Goldie Hawn are really happy because they just became grandparents for the eighth time. They’re as thrilled as any grandparent would be! Everyone knows they’re great grandparents. They once dressed up as Cinderella and Prince Charming for their granddaughter’s 4th birthday! Now, another grandchild is joining their family, making their group of grandkids even bigger!
Goldie and Kurt’s son, Wyatt Russell, and his wife, Meredith, shared some really happy news this weekend. Their family is getting bigger! People who love them have sent lots of love and good wishes after hearing the wonderful news.
In a nice Instagram post, Wyatt and Meredith showed everyone the first peek at their new baby.
Their baby came earlier than expected, on February 13th, a whole week before they thought. This brought a lot of happiness to the Russell family. The baby weighs a good 8 pounds and 3 ounces. Everyone is really happy and excited about the early arrival.
They named their baby boy Boone Joseph Russell. The name Boone is special and lucky, and it comes from French roots. According to NameBerry, it has become more popular since it entered the top 1000 names in the US in 2015.
Fans quickly showed their love and good wishes to the new family of three. They left lots of comments, happy about Boone’s birth and his special name.
People wrote messages full of love and congratulations. One fan said, “That’s so cute!” Another wrote, “Congratulations!! What a sweet name 😍 well done, Mama.”
Some mentioned how Boone’s name reminded them of Boone, North Carolina. Others just shared their happiness for the couple and their new family.
Kurt Russell, who the grandchildren lovingly call “Gogi,” has talked about how proud he is to see his son become a father. Wyatt also mentioned in an interview with Seth Meyers how his dad has helped him a lot as a new parent, giving him advice and wisdom.
It’s really nice news to hear! We’re sending our biggest congratulations to the Russell family, and to Goldie and Kurt!
