Pacific Coast News

Joseph Gordon-Levitt has his own little angel.

The Snowden actor is a first-time father after welcoming a son with his wifeTasha McCauley, over the Aug. 15 weekend, his rep confirms to PEOPLE.

Though the couple won’t be releasing their baby boy’s name, “the family is all happy and healthy,” a source tells PEOPLE.

Gordon-Levitt, 34, wed McCauley, the co-founder and CEO of Fellow Robots, during a quiet ceremony at their home in December.

It’s no surprise the proud new parents kept the pregnancy under wraps. Before tying the knot, Gordon-Levitt admitted he prefers to keep his personal life out of the spotlight.

“I have a girlfriend, but I tend not to really like to talk about it in public,” the hitRECord founder told Howard Stern in 2013, declining to name the lucky lady. “The girl that I’m with, she really doesn’t want to be a part of that.”

Kevin Zegers has two new little buddies: His baby girls!

The Gracepoint star is a first-time father after welcoming twins with wife Jaime Feld, he announced Thursday on Twitter.

“They’re here! I’ve never been more in love than I am with the gift my beautiful wife just gave me … Zoe Madison and Blake Everleigh Zegers,” the proud new dad Tweeted.

“Kevin and Jaime have not let the twins out of their sight since they were born. They are so thrilled to have two happy and healthy baby girls!” a source tells PEOPLE.

In April, Zegers, 30, confirmed he was doubling his family with Feld, a talent agent, with the upcoming addition of twin girls.

“Kevin and Jaime are so excited and can’t wait for their little bundles of joy to arrive,” his rep told PEOPLE.

With weeks to go until the arrival of their daughters, Zegers told PEOPLE that all the bags were packed and the nursery was complete. According to the dad-to-be, all that was missing were the new additions.

“I’m getting the car seats put in,” the actor told PEOPLE in July. “I took a few months off of work so I can focus on baby stuff. The nursery’s all done — I’ve been doing that for the past month or two.”

One thing that wasn’t completely set in stone: baby names. “We have a few, but we want to wait, meet them and see what they look like,” he explained.

And although it’s double the diaper duty, Zegers — who will take a break from work to spend time as a family of four — admits the proud new parents have been waiting for this moment for a long time.

“We were trying to have kids — we didn’t just happen to get pregnant,” he said. “Twins is obviously a lot, but we’re just super grateful that we were able to get pregnant.”

It’s a new boy for this New Girl star.

Max Greenfield and his wife, casting executive Tess Sanchez, have welcomed their second child, E! News confirms.

Son Ozzie James Greenfield arrived Monday, Aug. 24, weighing in at 6 lbs., 12 oz.

The couple, who married in 2008, are already parents to 5½-year-old daughter Lily.

“She knows that I’m on a TV show — she’ll be like, ‘Daddy, you play Schmidt,’ ” the actor, 35, told Good Morning America in 2014.

“There’s a big part of me that’s very proud of it and goes, ‘Daddy’s really happy,’ but another part that’s like, ‘Just stay away from that as long as you can.’ But she seems unfazed by it.”

The baby boy isn’t the only new addition to the New Girl set — Zooey Deschanel welcomed her first child, a daughter, in late July.

Greenfield will next take a guest turn on American Horror Story: Hotel, premiering in Oct. 7 on FX.

They’ve made it to the end zone: Eric and Jessie James Decker‘s baby boy is here!

The country singer has welcomed her second child with the New York Jets wide receiver, the couple announced Friday.

The new addition joins big sister Vivianne Rose, 17 months.

“Thanks for all well wishes! Mama and baby boy are doing great,” Decker tweeted. “Vivi is the sweetest big sister!”

Shortly after debuting her bikini line, James Decker, 27, revealed another big project in the works: a second pregnancy!

“Vivianne is so excited … We are over the moon about having another baby,” the mom-to-be captioned a family photo in March.

Instagram Photo

Despite their decision to keep the sex of their baby under wraps for a while, the “Lights Down Low” singer couldn’t help but drop a few hints about her “completely different” pregnancy.

“The first time I threw up every day, I was really sick, really exhausted. This one, I have more energy and I don’t feel as sick, no cravings,” she told PEOPLE in April. “The only way I really know I’m pregnant is I feel this bump growing and a baby moving around.”

The secret didn’t last long: Days later, the couple posted a short video clip confirming they were expecting a son. Switching gears from all-things girly didn’t faze James Decker, who already had a name picked out and immediately went to work on a sports-themed nursery.

“We already knew the names before we even knew the sex of the baby,” she told PEOPLE in May.

Instagram Photo

Looking ahead to life as a family of four, James Decker told American Baby she was most looking forward to spending the first few months bonding with her new baby — and not worrying about shedding any pregnancy pounds.

“I know some women slim down through nursing, but with Vivianne, my body held on to some extra pounds to make milk, and that was fine,” she said. “I also love all the cuddling during the baby stage, like when a baby snuggles up under your chin.”

Dave Annable‘s heart just skipped a beat: He’s a dad!

The Heartbreaker star and his wife Odette are first-time parents after welcoming a daughter on Monday, Sept. 7, they announced Thursday on social media.

“Odette and I couldn’t be happier to announce the arrival of the love of our lives. Welcome to the world Charlie Mae Annable,” Annable, 35, wrote alongside a photo of his baby girl gripping his finger on Instagram.

The new dad didn’t miss the irony of his daughter’s Labor Day arrival.

“Team Annable did not get the memo that ‘Labor Day’ wasn’t to be taken literally. Charlie is a holiday all on her own,” he added. “Mom and baby are in great health, and dad hasn’t stopped crying since. Shocker. Charlie is one lucky girl to have you as a mother @odetteannable. You are made from heaven.”

In her own announcement, The Astronaut Wives Club actress tweeted, “Dave and I are thrilled to introduce the newest member of the Annable family … Charlie Mae Annable. Born Sept. 7th.”

In May, the actor announced the pregnancy to his followers by wishing his wife both a happy birthday and congratulating her on her first Mother’s Day.

Instagram Photo

Although the couple didn’t know the sex of their baby on the way at the time, that didn’t stop the mom-to-be from splurging on a few baby items during their trip to Europe. And while Annable told PEOPLE it was “the most exciting time” of his life, the real surprise came when the two found out they would be welcoming a daughter.

“He just cried like a baby when he found out [it was a girl],” Odette told PEOPLE in July.

“Because it was a little girl, he was like, ‘Oh my God, what am I going to do?’ He’s so sensitive already, but it’s on overload.”

The couple spent the last few weeks before Charlie’s big debut finishing up their to-do lists, including the final touches on the nursery and assembling all the baby gear.

“This is full on nesting home. We’re trainwrecks — we’re hot messes — and then all of the sudden, it’s like ‘Oh, s—, we’re having a kid,’ ” he told PEOPLE. “We’re taking care of the house and putting the nursery together. I’ve been building all the cribs and the strollers. We feel fortunate enough to be married for five years — she’s sick of me so she’s ready for the next thing — but we’ve gotten to do it and live the life a little bit, so now we can’t wait to raise this little monkey.”

Instagram Photo

And other than dreaming of his daughter joining him for a game of golf one day, the future father was most looking forward to finally meeting his baby girl.

“The one piece of advice that has been a common denominator is just enjoy,” he said. “It goes by so quickly and just enjoy every second you’ve got with the kid. Life is precious, and that smile — I can’t wait to see that smile.”

The littlest gossip girl has arrived.

Leighton Meester and Adam Brody are new parents after welcoming their first child, PEOPLE has confirmed.

Daughter Arlo Day Brody was born at 12:12 a.m. on Tuesday, Aug. 4 in Whittier, California.

The private couple have yet to confirm the pregnancy or the birth, but that’s no surprise: After tying the knot in early 2014, Meester, 29, and the former The O.C. star, 35, never commented on their secret nuptials.

But the mom-to-be did hint that a family was in her near future during an interview with Nylon in November.

“Most people I know are starting to get married. It’ll be kids next,” the former Gossip Girl star told the magazine. “I like the grown-up stuff. I like having a house. I’ve got dogs.”

Meester, who made her Broadway debut in Of Mice and Men last year, and Brody, who most recently starred on Billy and Billie, met on the set in 2011 of The Oranges, then costarred together again in 2014’s Life Partners. Meester released her debut album, Heartstrings, last October.

Reps for the couple had no comment on the happy news.

“I would love to crave spinach, but it’s not going to happen,” she added.

Canalis’ work schedule won’t slow down now that she’s given birth. She had previously said that she has to shoot a fashion campaign in Italy two months after she was set to give birth.
