The “Knocked Up” star and her singer husband Josh Kelley finalised the adoption of 10-month-old Nancy Leigh from Korea last 18 September 09, revealing their applications were fast-tracked because the tot has special needs. Heigl explained, “They wanted to get her to us as quickly as possible.”

Now the National Enquirer reports the baby - nicknamed Naleigh - had an operation soon after she was born to fix her heart defect. A source tells the tabloid, “Doctors said the congenital heart defect had to be treated quickly to save the baby’s life.” (WENN)
