Salman Rushdie’s Ex-Wife Welcomes a Daughter!

Posted by Adam

Padma LakshmiPADMA Lakshmi is a proud mommy!

The Top Chef star, 39 — who was married to author Salman Rushdie from 2004-2007 — gave birth to her first child — a daughter — Saturday in New York City.

The girl’s name is Krishna, according to Us Weekly magazine.

Padma first announced her pregnancy in October and described it as a miracle because she has suffered for years with endometriosis.

“I actually can’t button my jeans anymore,” Lakshmi said last fall when asked how her pregnancy was going. “Up until about a week ago, I could. There’s just too much pressure, so I’ve had to put them away for now.”

Although Padma has not revealed her daughter’s father, it was recently claimed that the baby daddy is Adam Dell, a venture capitalist who teaches at Columbia Business School in NYC.

Adam is the brother of billionaire computer maker Michael Dell.

    THe women was once married to Salman Rushdie about 3 years ago. Micheal Dell is the supposed father.
    Don’t tell me that Salman’s slow moving sperm met Padma’s stagnant egg three years later to produce a baby.
    Talk about dumbed down journalists, the person who wrote this article was probably not at school they had the sex ed class.
    IN a galaxy far away they have a class “Learn the Reproductive cycles of Humans 101″ until then we shal learn of miracle baby’s like Krishna ( the mythological Krishna was supposedly dark as the night)
    Salman Bhai! Badhaie Ho! Aaap Bokud (bakraa) ban gaye!

    Akhil is right… if ‘..Salaman’s slow moving sperm…’ can meet ‘…Padma’s stagnant egg three yrs later to produce a baby’,ie defying nature, then anything can happen ie
    its definately Padma’s FATHERS’s super-slow sperms which are now reaching her ie i guess 45-50 yrs after her birth!!!?/!?
    WoW! birth of this Krishna sounds like a Hindu Jesus christ birth story.

    I really enjoyed seeing muslim fanatics behaviour out on the streets. We couldn’t show true nature of fanatic muslims if we would spend billions of dollars but Khomeini’s stupidity and also Muslims stupidity finally paid off. Thank you all you idiots, you did a good job to show the world how much idiocy is alive in this planet!
