With a new addition, Henry Golding and his wife Liv Lo now have a family of four. The couple announced the arrival of a second daughter today, joining their 2-year-old, Lyla. Though the news broke today, Florence Likan Golding arrived back on Sept. 9. Both Golding and Lo announced that they were expecting back in May.
"The journey of childbirth is full of its ups and downs, but glorious none the other," Lo wrote on Instagram alongside a video. Henry also posted the clip on his feed and both had a link to the FitSphere website, where Lo offered more details.
Lo explained that she had wanted a vaginal birth, but she developed a fever and "the baby started to go into distress." That prompted the medical staff to prepare for an emergency C-section. However, Lo dilated to 10 centimeters before it was necessary.
"My doctor came in and said, luckily, that I had the option to push, but the baby would have to be born right away," she wrote. "In 3 pushes Florence Likan Golding was born at 7lbs at 9:03 am on 9/9/23."

However, the difficulties continued. Lo chronicled troubles with breathing, but added that things ended up being fine.
"Baby Flo breastfed like a champ during the golden hour before we were whisked together to postpartum recovery," she explained. "Daddy Henry oversaw as she was PICC lined and intubated." Lo's clip shows Golding sitting near an incubator with his daughter inside and in a super-sweet moment, Lyla reaching inside to gently touch her sister. Florence was eventually diagnosed with a blood infection, but everyone is at home now and doing well.
Last May, Golding spoke to People about fatherhood, saying that his favorite part of being a dad was watching his daughter grow and discover new things.
"Seeing her grow and change," he said of spending time with Lyla. "Like today is actually Liv's birthday, and on Liv's birthday, little baby decided to really attempt to walk. She's changing so much, so every day is like a treat."
