Katherine Heigl And Josh Kelley Are Adopting

Katherine Heigl, 30, announced on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, which will air Friday, that she and her husband, musician Josh Kelley, are adopting a special-needs baby girl from Korea. (On a side-note, Heigl’s sister also was adopted from Korea)

“It is a little girl and she’ll be 10 months at the end this month.  She was actually born the day before me in November, which I thought was really serendipitous and just kind of like a sign. I realized just recently that I basically forfeited my birthday for the rest of my life.”

“Her name is Naleigh.  Well, I am naming her after my mother and sister Nancy, Leigh. So we call her Naleigh.”

And she added that her new daughter will be coming “real soon.”

” I wanted to tell everybody so you don’t think I stole a Korean baby.”
