The MP married barrister Marina Wheeler in 1993 when she was pregnant with their daughter.

Lara, who styles herself with the double-barrelled surname Johnson-Wheeler, is a writer, editor and broadcaster.

Fashionista Lara has carved out an impressive journalism career - as well as writing for Tory mag The Spectator and British Vogue and arts reviewing for the Evening Standard.

She is also a former Features Editor at online style mag SHOWStudio.

In 2016, she launched her own publication (un)fold magazine - which examines the "correlation between mental health and creativity".

And just like her dad, she is a keen classicist, gaining an A in her Latin A-Level and going on to study at Prince William and Kate Middleton's prestigious university St Andrews, where she gained a Master of Arts in Latin and Comparative Literature.

She was educated at Bedales which as of March 2024, costs £33,435 a year.

Milo was also a keen cricket player and came runner-up in the Funaki prize, a long-running award for artistic endeavour.

He went on to study at London's School of Oriental and African Studies which he graduated from in 2014.

Following this he took up a five-month internship at men's magazine Esquire Middle East, based in Dubai.

According to his LinkedIn profile, he can speak Arabic, Russian and French.

It is not known which school he attended but it is believed to be one in London as he was pictured outside their Islington home in a school uniform in 2016.

He went on to attend Cambridge University - whereas his dad went to their rival Oxford.

In August 2020, he reportedly wrote a play on Brexit that included his father's part in the UK leaving the European Union.

Boris' family life has caused him some controversy over the years.

His four children have a younger half-sister, Stephanie, who was born in 2009 - the product of an affair with art adviser Helen Macintyre.

Stephanie is the third youngest of Johnson's children.

At first, he denied paternity and wasn't named on the birth certificate.

However, his relations were revealed after a 2013 court battle in which he sought an injunction to prevent her existence being reported.

It is not believed her elder half-siblings or her father have anything to do with her.

On April 29, 2020, Boris and Carrie Symonds welcomed their first child together, naming him Wilfred Lawrie Nicholas Johnson.

The name Wilfred after Johnson's grandfather, Lawrie after Ms Symonds' grandfather.

The name Nicholas was chosen in tribute to the NHS doctors who saved Johnson's life when he was in hospital with coronavirus.

The young Johnson became Boris' sixth child - and third son.

Wilfred, now two, followed Tony Blair's son Leo in 2000 and David Cameron's daughter Florence in 2010 as newborns in Downing Street.

The tot is the half-brother of Boris' five other children.
