A new addition to the family

Goldie and Kurt’s son, Wyatt Russell, and his wife, Meredith, shared some heartwarming news this weekend, marking the further expansion of their growing family. Fans have flooded the couple with love and well wishes in response to the joyous announcement.

In a delightful Instagram post Wyatt and Meredith revealed the first glimpse of their newborn baby.

His arrival on February 13, a full week ahead of schedule, has brought immense joy to the Russell family. Weighing a healthy 8 pounds and 3 ounces, his early arrival has been met with nothing but love and excitement.

The baby’s unique name

Uniquely named Boone Joseph Russell, the name Boone carries a sense of blessing and luck, reflecting its French origins, according to NameBerry, has steadily gained popularity since breaking into the US Top 1000 names in 2015.

Fans wasted no time in showering the new family of three with adoration and best wishes. Comments poured in, celebrating Boone’s birth and the choice of his unique name.

Messages overflowed with expressions of love and congratulations, with one fan writing: “That’s so darn cute!”

Another added: “Congratulations!! What a sweet name 😍 well done, Mama.”

Some commented on how Boone’s name was reminiscent of Boone, North Carolina, while other simply wrote about how happy they were for the couple and their young family.

Kurt Russell, affectionately known as “Gogi” by his grandchildren, has spoken about his immense pride in seeing his son embrace fatherhood. Wyatt also acknowledged, during a recent interview with Seth Meyers, that his father has been a source of guidance and wisdom for him, especially when it comes to navigating life as a new parent.

What lovely news to see! We are sending our biggest congratulations to the Russell family, and to both Goldie and Kurt!
