Mae Whitman Welcomes First Child, Honors Parenthood Costar in Baby Name Reveal

Actress Mae Whitman, known  for her role on Parenthood,   recently became a mother. On August 28,  she revealed the birth of her first child,   a son named Miles, in a heartfelt Instagram  post. The name holds special meaning,   as it honors her Parenthood costar, Miles  Heizer, who played her brother on the show. Whitman shared a sweet photo of her baby’s tiny  feet and expressed her love for her newborn,   calling him the "kindest, gentlest,  smartest, funniest little beebee."   She also mentioned how grateful she and her  unnamed partner are to be chosen as his parents. Although Whitman has kept her relationship  private, she continues to stay close with her   Parenthood castmates. Her former on-screen mom,  Lauren Graham, was present when she announced   her pregnancy earlier this year, which added a  sentimental touch to this new chapter in her life. Whitman has remained tight-lipped  about the identity of her baby's   father but has shared her overwhelming joy  at becoming a mother, making it clear that   family—both on and off the screen—means  everything to her.
