Boris Johnson father?

Boris Johnson and Carrie Symonds

So you just got out of the hospital because you shook off the corona, and a week later you become a father. But wait a minute, wasn't Boris Johnson already 160? Time for some facts.

1. Well, he's not that old. 55. And it's his sixth child.

2. A bit about Boris's women. He was married to Allegra Mostyn-Owen for six years, then he was with Marina Wheeler for 25 years with whom he had four children, and now he is engaged to Carrie Symonds.

3. That second wife, Carrie Symonds, is actually 32.

4. Johnson is the fourth prime minister in 170 years to become a father during his term. Quite special, really.

5. The name of the youngest offspring is not yet known, but I personally find the other names quite nice. Here they are: Theodore Apollo, Lara Lettice, Cassia Peaches, Milo Arthur. I couldn't trace the name of the fifth child.

6. Boris Johnson is the great-grandson of a Turkish journalist.

7. He was born in New York but gave up his American nationality a few years ago.

8. His mother is an artist.

9. Boris (I think I can now call him Boris at point 9) was mayor of London for eight years.

10. He has written five non-fiction books and two novels and also produced a series for the BBC.

11. I'm actually starting to like Boris more and more, but that's beside the point for now.

12. Oh yes, Boris was a columnist for The Daily Telegraph. For writing a weekly piece, he received a hefty £275,000 a year. Yes, let Boris slide.

13. Boris has quite an eccentric character. He is said to be known for many affairs, alleged racist remarks, and he once even tried to hit a journalist.

14. Okay Boris, I might like you a bit less now. But colorful, you certainly are.
