Actor Zachary Levi is a dad! The Unbreakable Boy star and his girlfriend Maggie Keating announced the birth of their first baby together. “Best thing to come out of 2025.”
The couple shared a joint Instagram announcement of their baby while they held their newborn’s hands. The actor and photographer welcomed a son on April 2nd and chose to name him Henson Ezra Levi Pugh. The actor, whose full name is Zachary Levi Pugh, uses a stage name that drops his surname, and he gave his son his middle name. They chose not to learn their baby’s sex before his arrival and the actor shared that he would “be stoked out of my mind either way.” Maggie ended the announcement post writing, “Thank you for everyone’s continued love and prayers over the three of us. We can’t wait for you to meet our little man!”
The Shazam! star announced in December that his girlfriend was pregnant with his first baby. Zachary expressed his dream of becoming a father writing at the time, “I’ve wanted to be a dad since I was literally a kid. I’ve always felt that call on my life. This desire in my heart. A strange feeling of incompleteness by not having that level of love and responsibility in my journey. That the best years of my life would be on the other side of finally being a father. But deep down I knew that there were things in my life that needed to shift before I was ready for the blessing of something so special and the responsibilities that come with it.”
Congratulations to Zachary and Maggie on the arrival of baby Henson! We wish them all the best as they embrace their new role as parents.
