On July 10, 2015, Headey and Cadan welcomed their daughter Teddy. The "Fighting With My Family" star announced Teddy's arrival on Twitter. "Hello peeps. All good. Just fallen in unconditional heartbreaking divine love for the second time," she wrote at the time.
Just weeks before giving birth, Headey revealed she was pregnant again in a guest blog post for Plan International USA (via People). In her essay, which Headey penned to raise awareness for the Because I Am a Girl project, Headey said she'll raise her daughter to have "freedom of choice" in every aspect of her life. "She will be free to dance, to sing, to be educated in the fields that spark her passion, to marry if she wants, to marry WHO she wants, to remain single, or to fall in love with another woman," she wrote. "She'll be able to wear what she wants, put on lipstick, and read books that spark debate and expand her mind."
Since then, Headey has continued to empower her daughter in every way she can. For example, in honor of International Women's Day in 2021, Headey dedicated a sweet Instagram post to Teddy, in which she called her a "glorious tiny woman." She also described her daughter as "stubborn and tenacious, opinionated and funny, kind and curious, intuitive and observant," and said she "loves her people ferociously."
"May you always run with wolves and howl at the moon and cast whatever spells you desire," Headey added. "Though we battle DAILY (because you know everything and you're always right) I love you beyond words."
