On April 20th, paparazzi caught Joshua Jackson picking up some groceries and wearing a mask. It made me wonder if Joshua and Jodie Turner-Smith’s baby had already been born and they were just waiting to announce it quietly. Back in late March, he was doing interviews and he made it sound like her due date was already there, so… yeah, I think Jodie probably gave birth one or two weeks ago or so. And they’re only confirming it now:
Jodie Turner-Smith and Joshua Jackson‘s daughter has arrived! The Queen & Slim actress, 33, and the Little Fires Everywhere star, 41, have welcomed their first child together, reps for the couple confirm to PEOPLE exclusively.
“Both mother and baby are happy and healthy,” their reps tell PEOPLE.
I can’t wait to hear the name, if they announce it at all. I kind of suspect they might do a J-name, just because… Jodie & Joshua. Anyway, congrats to them. I feel so sorry for Jodie and all of the pregnant ladies giving birth during a pandemic. I know there are horror stories out there but you ladies are doing amazing and stay tough!

His eyes have that tired new father look lol.
I really want to see their baby but it will probably be awhile. Congrats.
Congratulations to the new parents
I love her on twitter. I also love her in that yellow dress
That yellow dress look is superb!
Superficial: I just think that yellow sparkle gown she wore, plus her hair and her arm candy, is the most beautiful look any woman had in the last year. Gorgeous.
Congratulations on the baby!
Agree about her look, it was gorgeous.
She is a stunning person and that dress was FIRE! That is going to be one genetically gifted child.
That dress is stunning on her. I’d look awful in it, LOL.
Congrats to them, glad they are well.
beautiful news, and congratulations to the new parents!
And I can’t stop myself: that woman is beyond gorgeous!
Yayyyyyy congrats!
Giving birth during a pandemic is not on my bucket list. It must be terrible for them.
It wouldn’t be the preference.
I watched Queen and Slim this weekend and really loved her acting. Congrats to baby and fam! I hope we get to see more of her in the future. She makes me pay attention to Pacey so much more.
She is absolutely stunning; the fact he got to be with her, remains a mystery………LOL
Congrats to both parents
Congratulations to this beautiful family.
I really want to see the baby!! Jodie is just stunning and omg her wardrobe in queen and slim. She is just sooooooo cool
I suspected she had as she hasnt been as active on her IG as she had been in the weeks prior. Congrats to both of them! Cant wait to hopefully learn her name.
I’m guessing their daughter was born in LA, which is interesting with Jodie saying that the US was too racist to raise a child here. I hope I’m misquoting, but it made me pause when she said that.
She may have wanted to have given birth elsewhere but couldn’t travel? Also I’m sure she was thanking someone called Cumo?? (I’m not American!) for saying that no one would be made to give birth alone.
I think that would be ‘Cuomo’. Governor Andrew Cuomo of New York lifted a ban they had initially put in place about having no extra people in the birthing room in the hospital. Now you can have one.
Racism doesn’t make you pause…but a Black woman mentioning it does. Mmkay.
Exactly – wtf?
Finally, some celebrity news that doesn’t make me bang my head against the wall! Congrats to them, I’m sure giving birth at this time was interesting, to say the least.
