Rachel Bilson Welcomes a Baby Girl

November 6, 2014

US Weekly is reporting that the couple gave their first child together a Disney princess-themed name — Briar Rose! The adorable name is a nod to the 1959 classic Sleeping Beauty; sheltering Princess Aurora from Maleficent’s curse, the three fairies call the little girl Briar Rose.

No other news about the birth, or the new baby, has been revealed.

The couple’s baby news first broke in May. The “Hart of Dixie” actress and Christensen never talked publicly about impending parenthood; however, Bilson, 32, was photographed walking on a beach in Barbados wearing a tiny bikini that revealed an adorable baby bump.
