Actress Cate Blanchett, who plays an evil step-mother in upcoming movie "Cinderella", and husband Andrew Upton, have adopted a baby girl and named her Edith Vivian Patricia Upton.
The news, confirmed by the Oscar winner's publicist on Friday, comes amid some reports that the couple had named the child Vivienne, reports eonline.com.
Edith has joined brothers Dashiell John, 13, Roman Robert, 10 and Ignatius Martin, 6 in the family fold.
Though in 2013 Blanchett had compared handling three children while maintaining her film and stage commitments to a "military operation", the 45-year-old star ultimately opted to add another troop to her brigade.
"Cinderella", which also stars Lily James, Richard Madden and Hayley Atwell, will hit Indian theatres on March 20, while in the US it releases a week earlier.
