"That '70s Show" Star Wilmer Valderrama Welcomes Baby Girl With Fiancee
"That '70s Show" cast Wilmer Valderrama and his fiancée Amanda Pacheco have become new parents, welcoming their newborn baby girl on Sunday through an Instagram post.
Valderrama posted a series of photos in a hospital room, showing the baby born on Feb. 15. One photo showed Valderrama holding her daughter as Pacheco clings to his arms, according to a USA Today report.
"Life is an ever evolving journey, and for all those times when our path needs a light.. often angels are sent to show us the way and that we can be more," the 41-year old actor wrote on his Instagram post, adding the hashtag #ItsJustUs3Now. His fiancée, 29-year-old model Pacheco, wrote the same words with the same hashtag on her Instagram post.
The couple revealed the sex of their baby in January, showing a parachuter jumping from a helicopter and spreading pink fog, which meant they would be having a girl, according to a People report.
They were first spotted shopping together in Los Angeles and was first reported to be dating in April 2019. They stepped together in France two months later and attended Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner's wedding celebrations.
Many sent their congratulations to the new parents. Jonas, who also recently welcomed his own daughter with Turner, sent a few heart emojis on the announcement of their new child.
Eva Longoria also commented and said that she is so happy for both of them. Mandy Moore, who is Valderrama's ex, also congratulated the couple. Moore is reported to be currently pregnant with her own child.
The news of their baby came almost a year after Valderrama and Pacheco announced their engagement in January 2020, with the actor popping the question on New Year's Day.
