Naleigh Kelley: Katherine Heigl's Adopted Daughter

Katherine Heigl and musician husband Josh Kelley are adopting a baby this week, JustJared.com confirms.

Radar reports the baby is a 10-month-old girl from Korea named Naleigh and her nickname will be Leigh (Heigl‘s sister also was adopted from Korea).

A few weeks ago, Katherine hosted a baby shower for her Grey’s co-star Ellen Pompeo. Now it looks like Ellen might have to be return the favor!

Heigl is currently on leave of absence from Grey’s as she shoots her movie Life As We Know It.

Congrats to the happy couple!

I love when celebrities adopt! I agree with Paige celebs should adopt in USA more often and help out with orphanages overseas.

Good for them, if this is true! I have so much respect for couples who give an unloved and unwanted child a second chance at a proper life!

Another celebrity buying a third world country kid. Better hurry before Brangelina gets her!

I always hear people say, “Celebs should adopt in the U.S. instead of overseas.”

It’s a VERY ignorant statement. Adoption is wonderful, no matter where the child is from.

Besides, if you do your research, there is POWERFUL reason why many parents DON’T adopt in the U.S. (Ridiculous laws, etc.)

I agree Jeanette. Who cares where a child is from. A child is a child and the need is the same no matter where he or she is from.

Leigh and heigl have the same letters. coincidence?

Congrats if true. Why do you all care if they adopt an American baby? Its really non of your business—-if you want to adropt American go ahead—but there are millions of kids all over the world–so what does it matter where the child came from—its going to get a home. Some of you are ridiculous.

Katherine’s older sister was adopted from Korea, so I’m not surprised the Kelley’s chose Korean adoption.

When this Hollywood trend dies out what are they going to do with the kids then? Send them back? The people that do it for the right reasons I’m all for it but the ones that follow a trend are pathetic.
