Carrie Johnson shares adorable video of baby Frankie as they welcome new family additions
Three children, two parents and... eight ducklings?Carrie Johnson's beautiful family is getting bigger asthe duck eggs she received as a presentfrom a neighbour are hatching.
Carrie, 36, shared updates via Instagram stories of the adorable ducklings being born, one after the other, and getting used to the incubator that keeps them warm until they're ready to be taken out.
The incubator was also a gift for Carrie's birthday last month, and the ducklings will be getting ready for their first outing into the duck pond in Carrie and husband Boris Johnson's garden.
So far there are eight hatchlings. The first four are called Rosa, Rainbow, Betty and Bobby, while the other four are still in the incubator, having been born in the last few hours.
The former media rep and mum of three has been keeping fans up to date with the incredible videos, often capturing the ducklings' first moments. In one, she said: "New life. Honestly, this is just totally incredible."
When the first ducklings hatched in April, Carrie stayed up through the night to make sure one of the weaker ducklings made it through, following guidance to feed and warm the little chick. The eight new editions join three older ducklings that hatched earlier this year – a busy garden, for sure!
