Hugh Hefner's son Cooper, 'Harry Potter' actress Scarlett Byrne welcome baby girl
Congratulations are in order for Cooper Hefner and Scarlett Byrne – they're officially parents.
The businessman and son of the late Hugh Hefner, 28, and his actress and model wife, 29, announced Monday that they've welcomed a baby girl.
"At 5:23pm this afternoon Scarlett and I welcomed our daughter Betsy Rose Hefner into the world. We are overwhelmed with gratitude, love and joy," Hefner wrote on Instagram with a series of photos of himself, his wife and the latest addition to the family in the hospital.
Hefner told E! News that the baby's name is inspired by his late grandmother, Betsy Aldridge-Conrad, who passed away in July.
"My grandmother meant the world to both Scarlett and I," he said.
He also gushed over his baby girl's arrival.
"We are overwhelmed with joy to share that our daughter, Betsy Rose Hefner, has arrived," he added. "We look forward to being home and spending time together as a family in the days and weeks ahead."
