Celebrity Births: Prinze, Pompeo, and Chen

Sarah Michelle Gellar & Freddi Prince jr.

I was thrilled to find out months ago that Sarah Michelle Prinze, the actress from my favorite TV show Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and husband Freddie Prinze, Jr.24, were expecting after six years of marriage. I was even more thrilled to find out that Sarah and Freddie welcomed baby girl Charlotte Grace Prinze last Sunday, Sept. 19th.

No quirky names for this little girl; the Prinzes must be fond of classic names. The couple’s rep has announced that the Prinzes are “over the moon” about their daughter. I wonder if we’ll see any playdates between who’s set to join the cast of Charlotte, Satyana (Alyson Hannigan’s daughter) or even David Boreanaz’s daughter Bardot Vida in the future?

Ellen Pompeo & Chris Ivery

As for Grey’s Anatomy star, Ellen Pompeo, and music producer husband Chris Ivery, they welcomed their own baby girl on Tuesday, Sept. 15th in Los Angeles. The couple kept the birth under wraps and no official announcement was made until yesterday. The baby’s name? Also on the side of “normal”: Stella Luna Pompeo Ivery. Stella will have plenty of playmates if mom brings her to work on set: Katherine Heigl’s Naleigh, and Chyler Leighs’ Anniston Kae.

Julie Chen &Les Moonves

Breaking the baby girl trend, TV show host Julie Chen and CBS’ CEO Les Moonves, welcomed son Charlie at 9:40 a.m. in Los Angeles on Thurs, September 24th. Charlie (another classic name!), was due on October 4th. He is a little premature by a few weeks, but at this stage of development, his is considered a safe birth. Charlie joins half-siblings Adam, Michael and Sara, Moonves’ children from a previous marriage.
