Nancy Leigh "Naleigh" Kelley

Naleigh, born November 23, 2008, is Heigl and Kelley's oldest child. According to People, Naleigh's adoption was something particularly special to Heigl: she was born in South Korea, like Heigl's sister Meg. "I wanted my own family to resemble the one I came from, so I always knew I wanted to adopt from Korea," Heigl told Scholastic. "We have talked about having biological children as well, but we decided to adopt first. I just wanted to be a mom. So however we do that, it's fine with me. I'd like to adopt again."

Now 12 years old, Naleigh's first year of life was spent dealing with some scary health problems, including a congenital heart defect. "Her heart is 100 percent fine now," Heigl told Harper's Bazaar in May 2010. "A lot of children don't find forever homes because they're on that special-needs list, even if it's because of something as simple as her mother smoked cigarettes for a month, not knowing she was pregnant. That's not so huge that you couldn't handle it."
