Leslie Odom Jr. and wife Nicolette Robinson announce birth of baby boy
Congratulations are in order for "Hamilton" star Leslie Odom Jr. and his wife, actress Nicolette Robinson. The proud parents welcomed their second child, a baby boy.
The couple, who married in 2012, first announced they were expecting another child in November. They have a 3-year-old daughter Lucy.
Odom, 39, revealed Thursday that his family finally welcomed their newest member, Able Phineas, on March 25.
The actor shared a sweet slideshow consisting of three pictures, the first being of a grinning Lucy wearing a tiara while cuddling her baby brother, while the second is of Able resting peacefully. The third is of the happy parents, with Odom standing behind a seated Robinson, who is holding her newborn close.
"More life! One whole week with our Abe," the "One Night in Miami" star wrote. "Watching Nicolette give birth to these kids...? Simply, the bravest acts I’ve ever witnessed from a foot away."
Praising his wife, he added, "I love you, sweetheart and I am in awe. Our little family bursts at the seams with joy! And gratitude."
Many of the Broadway star's famous friends flocked to the comment section to express their well wishes. Kristen Bell, who had worked alongside him on the animated series "Central Park," gushed, "Congrats papa and great job mama!! Welcome Able."
Another "Central Park" cast member, Josh Gad, called Able "So beautiful." Other sweet remarks came from Josh Groban, Debra Messing, Lena Waithe and many others.
