Jamie Cullum and Sophie Dahl are the parents

It's a girl for Jamie Cullum and Sophie Dahl. According to the spokesman of the couple, the jazz singer and his wife, former model, author and presenter, welcomed March 2 last their first child, a girl named Lyra. "Both parents are thrilled," said their spokesperson in a statement relayed this weekend by the British news agency Press Association.

The representative added that the couple had wanted to provide any other information about the birth of their daughter. Together since 2007, Sophie Dahl, 33, and Jamie Cullum, 31, were married last year out of sight. Last September, the couple announced that Sophie Dahl, whose name is often associated with that of her grandfather Roald, author of Charlie the Chocolate Factory, was four months pregnant.

As for the baby's name, Lyra, is the name of the heroine of the saga at the crossroads of fantastic worlds of Philip Pullman. Coincidence? Only parents know.
