Troian Bellisario is no longer a Pretty Little Liar.
Instead, she’s a proud and excited new mother!
About two months after announcing she and husband Patrick J. Adams were expecting their first child, the former ABC Family star has made a rather huge announcement:
That child is here!
She has given birth!
For the first time in her life!
The new parent shared a unique picture (below) her baby, keeping nearly every detail about the newborn private, but relaying the following message to her fans and followers:
I cannot express how grateful I am.
To the people who have protected us and kept our growing family safe and respected our privacy. To our tribe for expanding with grace and exponential amounts of love.
To my @halfadams for being so supportive during every moment of my pregnancy and her birth. And to whatever incredible force of fate that brought this baby girl into our lives.
I couldn’t be more proud to be her mother.
To bring a new girl into this world and to do my best to raise her to be kind, strong and whatever the heck she wants to be.
Adams, who departed the USA Network series Suits at the end of Season 7 after his character married the character played by Meghan Markle, also did not divulge the name or gender of his kid.
But he managed to make us tear up with a message of his own.
Via Instagram, it reads:
The world just got 8lbs heavier. Thank you to everyone who fought for and protected our privacy during this incredible and beautiful time in our lives.
Everyone is happy and healthy and loving every moment of this. I could not be more excited to bring a baby girl into this world at this moment.
We will raise her to be powerful, to always speak her mind and heart and to live without fear.
It’s a brand new day and a brave new world and they are both beautiful.
Bellisario and Adams got married in December of 2016 after dating for three years.
While she and Adams may have quiet about their not-so-little secret, the actress’ close friend and former costar, Lucy Hale, couldn’t help but rave about the her pal’s pregnancy to Us Weekly in August:
“I think we’ve all known for a bit,” Hale said a few weeks back. “I’m really happy for her.”
Imagine how happy everyone is now that the precious bundle of joy is here!
We admire how Adams and Bellisario are choosing not to divulge very much about their son or daughter.
We’re not about to press for any further details now or ever; not if they would prefer not to share them.
We’d simply like to pass along our best wishes and to send our congratulations.
Treasure every milisecond with that tiny human being, you guys. The time flies by way too quickly.
