Surprise! Josh Radnor Becomes a Dad

Josh Radnor, the beloved star of How I Met Your Mother, has embarked on a new chapter – fatherhood!

The couple's happiness is palpable as they embrace their roles as new parents.

A Heartfelt Announcement

In a heartfelt Instagram post, Josh couldn't contain his excitement, sharing some adorable details about his little one. "So my wife and I had a baby a few months ago (!!)" he wrote. "Here’s what we know so far: His smile lights up the room. He’s super observant and thoughtful. He gets hypnotized when I play him songs on the guitar. He thinks the word ‘baba ghanoush’ is hysterical. He’s a total delight and Jordana and I are thrilled he’s here."

Josh also gave a shout-out to his fans, especially listeners of his podcast How We Made Your Mother, where he had previously shared the news. "Thanks for all the kind words from @howwemadeyourmother listeners," he continued. "Sending love to all my fellow parents of newborns out there. What a wild, beautiful, exhausting, heart-opening initiation. So grateful."

Capturing Precious Moments

Accompanying the announcement, Josh treated fans to a series of heartwarming photos. One shows him beaming with pride while holding his newborn son. Another captures the little one peacefully resting on top of a guitar, hinting at the musical bond he shares with his dad. There's also a touching image of Jordana cradling their son in the hospital shortly after his birth.

For those in the know, Josh and Jordana's love story is just as enchanting as their new journey into parenthood. They tied the knot in January 2024, almost two years after their fateful meeting in February 2022. Josh recently shared the "crazy" way they met, adding yet another layer of charm to their story.
