Jeffrey Dean Morgan, Hilarie Burton Expecting Baby Girl
Congratulations to the Walking Dead actor and the One Tree Hill alum!
E! News reports that Jeffrey Dean Morgan accidentally told the crowd at a New Jersey Supernatural convention that he and longtime love Hilarie Burton are expecting a baby girl. And after his slip-up on Sunday, Sept. 24, 2017, he quickly took to Instagram to confirm the news before media outlets got the chance to publish the story.
Posting a photo of himself on stage with his face in his hands, Morgan, 51, wrote, "Whoever took this picture?? Caught a moment... thank you. We shall cherish."
He continued, "I texted @hilarieburton right after I spilled the little girl beans... and, as usual... she was a rockstar. After all these years she's come to expect me to be a dope... thank god she gets it, and loves me regardless."
Just one week earlier, a rep for Morgan confirmed to E! News that Burton, 35, was pregnant with the couple's second child after Morgan had been seen holding Burton's baby bump at the 2017 Emmy Awards.
Morgan and Burton have been together since 2009 and have one child together—a son named Gus, who was born in March 2010.
