Rebel Wilson & Girlfriend Romona Agruma Celebrate Thanksgiving With New Baby Royce

Rebel Wilson and her girlfriend Romona Agruma celebrated Thanksgiving together with Wilson’s new baby girl for the first time.

Just weeks ago, Wilson announced the birth of a baby via surrogate. The actress welcomed her first child, named Royce Lillian Elizabeth Wilson, and mentioned that she had a “gorgeous” surrogate in an Instagram post.

“I can’t even describe the love I have for her,” Wilson wrote in the caption. “she’s a beautiful miracle!”

The new mom, 42, said this has been “years in the making,” and thanked her surrogate “who carried and birthed her with such grace and care.”

She continued, “I am ready to give little Roycie all the love imaginable. I am learning quickly… much respect to all the Mums out there!”

In November 2020, Wilson shared on social media that she’d been diagnosed with polycystic ovary syndrome, a hormonal disorder that can affect fertility. In an Instagram post, she sympathized with other women struggling with fertility issues. 

She told BBC last December that she was “still trying on the fertility journey.”

“I was the classic example of a career who went out into the world, didn’t even think about kids, and then suddenly in your mid-thirties is like, ‘oh hang on, do I want that as an option? And if I do, what do I need to do?’” she said. “It could be great if I had my own children but I don’t know whether that’s going to happen.”

After the recent post celebrating the surrogacy and birth of baby Royce, Wilson shared her reasoning behind her daughter’s name. The Australian star told People that she wanted a name starting with R, which led her to the first name Royce.

“Lillian and Elizabeth are both family names carried by women in my family who I admire,” she said of her child’s middle names. “Elizabeth, which is also my middle name, after the late Queen.”

The actress said her newborn is “gorgeous and perfect” and that she’s proud to be a mom.
