Billie Lourd’s baby is here!
The “American Horror Story” star gave birth to her and husband Austen Rydell’s second child on Monday, her dad revealed at Variety’s Dealmakers Breakfast in Beverly Hills Tuesday.
“My daughter had a baby last night,” talent agent Bryan Lourd shared while onstage at the event. “I left the hospital at 1:30 and got there this morning at 6. So I’m a little tired, but happy.”
CAA’s co-chairman, 66, added that “the adrenaline is still flowing” following his new grandchild’s birth.
Billie revealed her pregnancy in September when she cradled her surprise baby bump at the “Ticket to Paradise” premiere.
The actress showed her budding belly in a sequined pink gown via Instagram, writing, “✨💖🪩🌸2️⃣🌸🪩💖✨.”
Lourd and Rydell, both 30, are also the parents of 2-year-old son Kingston.
While pregnant with her first child in 2020, Billie — whose mother is late actress Carrie Fisher — kept her pregnancy under wraps.
Lourd then shocked her Instagram followers with a photo of her infant’s feet amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
“Introducing: Kingston Fisher Lourd Rydell,” the new mom wrote on Instagram at the time alongside blue heart emojis.
“Star Wars” actor Mark Hamill adorably reacted to Lourd’s baby news via Twitter, writing, “I can’t think of another baby with both ‘KING’ AND ‘LORD’ in their name. Nice.”
While Lourd and Rydell keep their family life private, even censoring Kingston’s face on social media, the “Scream Queens” alum has given insight into parenthood on rare occasions.
“To put it lightly, being Kingston’s Mama is the greatest thing of all time,” she gushed via Instagram in May. “To say it makes me the happiest person in the universe seems too soft a sentence to describe how being his Mom makes me feel.”
The New York University grad noted that she misses her own late mother, who died in 2016 at age 60, a “whole damn lot.”
She concluded, “Mother’s Day doesn’t need to be solely the classic hallmark happy. It can be many things all at once. So happy Mother’s Day but also sad / lonely / estranged / painful / awkward / weird / griefy (still trying to make this word a thing) / etc. Mother’s day!!!”
