Last month, the actress was spotted out walking in Los Angeles with her newborn in a baby carrier.

A source confirmed to People that the pair welcomed a baby boy, after Gina revealed she was pregnant in July 2022.

Alongside a sweet video of her pregnancy, the Something Great actress revealed she was expecting.

“This birthday hits different,” she wrote alongside the post.

Rodriguez said her husband has been incredible throughout her pregnancy. So much so that he trained to be her doula.

She told Entertainment Tonight: “My husband is training to be my doula.

She continued: “He’s really next level. He’s magical.”

The actress added: “He’s definitely the better half, so I’m hoping that he’ll just go on in there and pull our baby out.”

Gina and LoCicero first met in 2016, but didn’t start dating until 2017.

The couple tied the knot in a stunning ceremony in May 2019.
