Sorvino has baby girl

Oscar-winning actress Mira Sorvino and her husband Chris Backus have become the proud parents of a baby girl.

The Mighty Aphrodite star, 37, and her 27-year-old husband have yet to reveal the name of their daughter, who was born in Los Angeles last week.

A close source says: "They're extremely happy."

The couple married in June this year after meeting at a friend's party.
