Later, he posted another photo of his wife and their new baby, writing, \"I don’t now how she’s done it... but I don’t really have words. All I’ve got is: wow.\"
Van Der Beek and his wife have been married since 2010 and are also parents to Emilia, 2, Annabel Leah, 4, Joshua, 6, and Olivia, 7.
Back in February, they announced that they were expecting their fifth child. \"Thrilled beyond belief to announce that we are once again adding to our family,\" he wrote. \"And I say 'beyond belief' because some people are probably wondering if we’re out of our minds. Which we might very well be... but I couldn’t be more excited. Or grateful. Or in awe of [Kimberly].\"
