Helena Bonham Carter and Tim Burton Welcome a Daughter!

Helena Bonham Carter and her husband, director Tim Burton, welcomed a daughter on Saturday! People magazine spoke with Helena's rep who said,"[Helena and Tim] are absolutely delighted they have a daughter. It's a lovely Christmas present for the family." The couple also has a son together, Billy, who is four.

In addition to celebrating the birth of their daughter, the proud parents found out last week that they are both Golden Globe nominees this year, best actress, and best director, respectively for "Sweeney Todd." In fact, the notoriously spooky couple got the good news while at the doctor's office.

"We were talking about inducing [labor], and Tim got a call from his assistant," Helena told People before her daughter was born. The award nomination is fitting she said. "I do look like a globe, so it's kind of funny. I am very round."
