Katherine Heigl Adopted Korean Baby Naleigh FIRST PHOTOS
Grey’s Anatomy star Katherine Heigl, who just recently announced she and her husband Josh Kelley would be adopting a baby girl with special needs from Korea on the Ellen DeGeneres Show, has released her first family photo with the new baby.
“They sent us a picture. They told us that it was a little girl and who she was and the information about six months ago,” she revealed on the Sept. 11 Ellen DeGeneres show. “It was meant to take a long time. This sort of thing can take years.”
“She is a special needs baby and because of that it [adoption process] all moved so much faster,” she told Ellen. “They wanted to get her to us as quickly as possible.”
10 month-old baby Nancy Leigh aka Naleigh was named after Katherine’s mother and sister, who was also adopted as a little girl from Korea. “I am naming her after my mother and sister — Nancy, Leigh. So we call her Naleigh,” Katherine said.
