Bio and birth dates - facts on Evangeline, long-term boyfriend Norman and their (still!) nameless son
Evangeline and Norman's vital stats:
Evangeline Lilly, born August 3, 1979
Norman Kali, unknown
Evangeline's child:
Baby Kali, born May 2011
Evangeline Lilly, who was born Nicole Evangeline Lilly, met boyfriend Norman Kali whilst working on the TV series Lost. Norman was a production assistant for the film crew. Lost began in 2004, but it is unknown as to when the couple began dating.
In April 2011, Evangeline announced she was taking a break from her busy acting career, with rumours speculating that she was taking maternity leave.
“I’m definitely planning on taking a break for a little while. I consider acting a day job – it’s not my dream; it’s not my be-all, end-all,” Evangeline said in an interview.
While the rumours remained unconfirmed, in the same month, Evangeline was spotted with an obvious baby bump. Even when she was photographed with a blooming baby bump in a bright blue maxi dress, Evangeline still kept quiet.
“I have always wanted to have a child of my own and I will always want to go through the gift that women have been given to experience that, so I hope to be a mother at some point. I think I can allow myself one child - and from then on, I think I would have to adopt. It makes sense not to add to the population problem,” Evangeline had once stated (before the baby rumours began).
After months of speculation and no actual confirmation from Evangeline or her long-term partner Norman, the pair were spotted carrying a newborn baby! However, in Evangeline's tradition of keeping things to herself, the baby's name still hasn't been announced...
Evangeline, Norman and their baby have been snapped on a number of occasions since May, despite all the secrecy before he was born. Evangeline is currently filming The Hobbit, returning to work only three months after giving birth. The family were spotted taking a stroll in New Zealand (the film's location) with a sort-after Bugaboo Cameleon buggy.
