‘The Talk’ Cast & News: Co-Host Sara Gilbert and Music Producer Linda Perry Welcome Baby Boy
Sara Gilbert and wife Linda Perry welcomed a baby boy on Saturday, Feb. 28, her co-hosts on "The Talk" shared on Monday's show. The couple named their newborn son Rhodes Emilio Gilbert Perry.
Gilbert, 40, and Perry, 49, shared a picture of baby Rhodes that "The Talk" co-host Sharon Osbourne held up during Monday's show for viewers to see. The baby boy was pictured wrapped in a blanket, wearing a knit hat and sleeping.
"A Huge congratulations to @THEsaragilbert and her new baby boy ... so happy for you and @RealLindaPerry!" "The Talk's" Julie Chen tweeted.
The "Roseanne" alum announced she was pregnant in September 2014 on "The Talk." On the episode, co-hosts Sheryl Underwood, Osbourne, Aisha Taylor and Julie Chen encouraged her to overcome her fear of having a cinderblock broken on her stomach during the "Face Your Fears" premiere week. An emotional Gilbert declared, "I actually can't do it, because ... I'm pregnant!"
The reveal was a huge surprise to her co-hosts!
Gilbert married singer-songwriter Perry in March 2014. The pair had been dating since 2011, reports People magazine.
Perry, the former lead singer for the band 4 Non Blondes and a successful music producer, proposed to Gilbert at a romantic picnic last April. Gilbert shared the details of that special day with her fellow "The Talk" hosts: "We go to a park, and we have food and we're eating it, it's really sweet and there's this guy sitting playing guitar, like a street musician, and he starts playing this song that we love. ... I'm like, 'Oh, that's so weird, this is so magical and amazing.'"
The former "Bad Teacher" star added, "[Perry] goes to her backpack and she pulls out some T-shirts and the first T-shirt says, 'Will,' and then she puts on another T-shirt that says, 'You,' 'Marry,' 'Me' and the last one is a question mark."
While this is the couple's first child, Gilbert gave birth previously to a daughter named Sawyer, 7, from her past relationship with TV producer Allison Adler. Adler and Gilbert also have a son Levi Hank, 9, of whom Adler is the birth mother.
