Gina Rodriguez has officially debuted her first child to the world!

It was initially reported by her agent last month that the Jane The Virgin star had given birth to a baby boy, alongside her husband Joe LoCicero.

Since her son’s arrival, Gina had been refraining from sharing any details about him on social media. However, she has now broken her silence!

Taking to Instagram last night, the 38-year-old shared a post to promote her new sitcom Not Dead Yet. Hidden amongst her pride for the show, Gina chose to announce the name of her son and the first image of him, as well as footage of herself dancing whilst breastfeeding him.

“(and yes, I am breastfeeding while ballroom) THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO HAS BEEN SUPPORTING OUR SWEET SHOW. I LOVE YOU,” she added.

After uploading her post, Gina has received a wealth of well-wishes and praise from many famous faces.

“YOU ARE A MIRACLE HUMAN HOW DAF*** YOU DOING A DANCE CLASS,” replied New Girl actress and Gina’s co-star Hannah Simone.

Gina and Joe first met on the set of Jane The Virgin in early 2016, as Joe was a guest star on its second season. However, the pair didn’t start dating until August of that same year. 

The couple got engaged in the summer of 2018, and tied the knot in May of the following year.

Congratulations to Gina and Joe on their new bundle of joy!
