PARIS (Reuters) - French first lady Carla Bruni gave birth to a baby girl on Wednesday, French media reported, her first child with husband President Nicolas Sarkozy and the first baby born to a French presidential couple in office.

Europe 1 radio and BFM television said Bruni gave birth at around 8 p.m. (2 p.m. EDT) after being admitted earlier in the day to the La Muette maternity clinic in central Paris.

Neither the president's office nor La Muette would immediately confirm the reports.
