Johnson is a father for the seventh time, What is the story of the marriages and children of the British Prime Minister?
British Prime Minister Boris Johnson and his wife, Carrie Johnson, announced the birth of their second child "in good health". While the new born comes as the seventh daughter of the resident of "Apartment 10 in Downing Street", the third marriage in his life is added to a large number of other mistresses.
British Prime Minister Boris Johnson and his wife Carrie announced the birth of their second daughter. British and international media reported a statement saying: "The Prime Minister and Mrs Johnson are delighted to announce the birth of a healthy baby girl in a London hospital earlier today. Both mother and daughter are in good health, and the couple would like to thank the wonderful team of the NHS for their support. All the care and support they gave."
The new-born comes the second daughter of the family, "Apartment 10 in Downing Street", after the birth of Wilfred Johnson last April. It is the seventh child of Father Boris, who has four adult children from his ex-wife, and another daughter out of wedlock.
While the marriages and children of Boris Johnson remain an obscure point in the biography of the Prime Minister, as until now there are doubts about other children of his, and that, apart from his three documented marriages, he had many relationships with a large number of women whose number is completely unknown.
Johnson's seven children
After the news of the birth was announced, a Downing Street spokesman said: "Prime Minister Boris Johnson needs to spend time with his family, but will work to balance his responsibilities to leading the country that he will continue to exercise."
Not until last September, when Boris Johnson lifted the mystery about the number of his children. Where he said in a press interview with the American channel NBC, answering the journalist's question on the subject: "Yes, I have six children." Speaking about his son with his current wife, he added, "Yes, I love the little ones, but his presence means a big job. I change a lot of diapers!"
While it was known that the British Prime Minister had four children from his second marriage, they reached their twenties. While the presence of his daughter Stephanie, who was born in 2009 as a result of an infidelity affair with his artistic advisor, Helen McIntyre, was kept secret until the newspaper "Daily Mail" revealed it . Then the mother fought a court battle to cover up the case, but the court ruled in favor of the newspaper in 2013.
The faults of Johnson's marriages
Johnson was known for his numerous relationships with women, except for those whom he married officially, says a report on the British "Daily Record". His first marriage was in 1987 with fellow Oxford University student Allegra Mustaine Owen, when they were 23 years old. A marriage Johnson described as "the end of their relationship, not the beginning." Thus their divorce took place after only five years of marriage.
Just 12 days after the divorce, Johnson tied the knot with his second wife, Marina Wheeler, who was then pregnant with his first daughter, Lara Lytes. Their marriage lasted 25 years, and they had two more sons and a daughter. However, his side relationships led to the disruption of their marriage, which affected the children to the extent that his daughter Lara described him as "selfish". Marina expelled him from the house after the scandal of his secret daughter, and subsequently separated in 2018.
Among Johnson's secret relationships were those that linked him to American businesswoman Jennifer Arcuri, and caused him trouble when she claimed that "he was helping her with his authority as mayor of London in her business", which put him at the time under criminal investigation on charges of "abuse of political office".
He also had a relationship with the journalist Petronella Wyatt, who was working under his supervision when he was an editor in the magazine "Spectator", and she left him because he failed to separate from his wife and marry her. At the same time he was linked to another journalist, Anna Vasakleri. In addition to his technical advisor, who gave birth to his daughter Stephanie. He "had a great need for admiration," as ex-girlfriend Petronilla described him.
These multiple relationships almost blew up his political career more than once, as in the case of his denial of his relationship with Petronilla, or his assistance to the American businesswoman, or his denial of the existence of a daughter whom he bore through marital infidelity. And his relationship with women still threatens his position as the head of the government of one of the world’s largest powers, as is the recent criticism of his advisers that he yields to the influence of his current wife and refrains from taking sovereign decisions for fear of angering him, as in the case of “his dismissal of an employee in his office who leaked news to the press because he is his wife’s close friend.”
