Her Instagram post read, "Beyond proud to announce the birth of my first child, Royce Lillian, born this past week via surrogate 💗 I can’t even describe the love I have for her, she’s a beautiful miracle! I am forever grateful to everyone who has been involved, (you know who you are), this has been years in the making…but particularly wanted to thank my gorgeous surrogate who carried her and birthed her with such grace and care.

I am learning quickly…much respect to all the Mums out there! Proud to be in your club. 💗💗💗"
Wilson told People in May that she lost weight in 2020 in hopes of becoming a mother because a fertility doctor had told her she would have a better chance of harvesting her eggs if she dropped some pounds, as reported by the Daily Mail.
Wilson's announcement of the birth of her baby comes just a few days after she denied speculations that she and her girlfriend Ramona Agruma were engaged.
In June, the 'Jojo Rabbit' star came out as a gay on Instagram along with a photo of herself and Agruma, an entrepreneur, after her shocking split from Jacob Busch in 2021. In the caption of the post, the actress gushed, "I thought I was searching for a Disney Prince… but maybe what I really needed all this time was a Disney Princess."
