Jack White and wife welcome new baby

Jack White’s wife Karen Elson gave birth to a baby boy yesterday (August 7).

The baby, whom the couple have named Henry Lee White, is the second child for the couple, who have a 15-month old daughter, Scarlett Teresa White.

White’s publicist Chloe Walsh said: "The new child and his mother are both feeling very healthy and happy."

Elson and White met on the set of The White Stripes' video ‘Blue Orchid’ and then apparently married in a canoe on the Amazon river in 2005.

The White Stripes recently completed an extensive tour of Canada, and will resume their North American dates on September 13 in New Mexico.
