It’s a good thing克里斯•沙利文obtained some on-screen parenting experience during season four ofThis Is Us, because he’s officially a dad IRL.
On Tuesday, the 40-year-old actor welcomed his first child—a baby boy named Bear Maxwell—with his wife, Rachel. Sullivan (who plays Kate’s husband,Toby, onThis Is Us) announced the exciting news on his personal Instagram account by sharing a photo of the newborn’s tiny feet.
他写道,“8磅beautiful baby boy. Witnessing @therealrachelsullivan bring our first son into this world, after 20 hours of labor, was one of the great honors of my life. It was primal and intentional, and I have never been more in love with this powerful woman. She and baby are resting and recovering well. Everyone is healthy and exhausted.”
In an interview withPeoplemagazine, Sullivan discussed the sweet way he shared the experience with his family. This included creating a virtual name announcement, since no one was able to visit the newborn due to thecoronavirus pandemic.
“[Bear] and Rachel are both very healthy and recovering well and are resting,” he told the outlet. “As far as the name announcement goes, we designed a puzzle to send to our family members as a fun way to announce his name and to keep us all connected during quarantine—kind of a group activity to reach across the land. It’s both information and something to do. And the reveal of our first son’s name.”
We’re totally stealing this idea.
