Two Georgia babies are finalists in Regis and Kelly’s $125,000 ‘Beautiful Baby’ search

Two Atlanta babies are in the running to win $125,000 in college funds in Regis & Kelly’s annual “Beautiful Baby” contest. That might be enough to pay for a semester of college in 2028! Today, the babies and parents are in New York City getting their pictures taken for a possible cover shot in Parenting Early Years Magazine.

Here's Maggie Sue Romeo from Braselton. At age 3, she's more like a toddler but the contest does allow contestants up to the age of four.

And this is John Jeffrey Simmons of Mableton is 17 months old:

On Friday, we find out who wins. (Locally, “Regis & Kelly” airs on WSB-TV at 9 a.m.) The four runners up each get $25,000. Not bad! Plus, a year’s supply of Turtle Wax! No, no no. Gerber products.

Voting is already over after 250,000 votes, but if you want to see the top 5 finalists, go here at www.livesbeautifulbaby.com
