It comes on the same day Hollywood actress Nicole Kidman gave birth to a girl - Sunday Rose Kidman Urban - in Nashville.

McConaughey announced the pregnancy in January, writing on his blog: 'We are stoked and wowed by this miracle of creation and this gift from God, and so excited for the adventure that will come in raising this child, being mother and a father, and shepherding him or her through this life.'

He went on to say, 'wish us the best, keep us in your prayers, and God bless evolution.'
