Padma Lakshmi finally shows off her adorable baby Krishna

These are the first photos that I’ve seen of Padma Lakshmi’s baby girl Krishna. Krishna was born back in February, under a minor storm of baby daddy drama. Months later, it was revealed that the baby daddy was someone shockingly age-appropriate – entrepreneur Adam Dell, who promptly began litigating his way into his daughter’s life. Anyway, Padma never released any baby photos, and the few times Padma’s been out with the baby, Krishna’s face is usually covered. So now we finally get to see the little girl…

And she’s so cute! Is it conceited for me to say that? Because I look at these photos and I think this baby looks just like I did. I’m half-Indian, half-Anglo, just like Krishna. I have lighter brown skin than my Indian parent (I refer to myself as “brownish”), my hair isn’t the typical jet-black of Indians either, just like Krishna. But my mom never put on her best hot pink sweater dress and swaddled me in fuchsia. So Krishna’s got a leg up on me. Still – adorable brownish baby!
