Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt: First Look at Their Miracle Baby!

Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag are featured on the latest cover of Us Weekly. But the former MTV reality stars are not alone. They are joined by a certain brand new baby who is now an official part of their family: Mr. Gunner Stone!!!! Indeed, Montag gave birth to the couple’s first child on Sunday, October 1. According to a rep for the ex-Hills cast members, the precious little fella weighed in at 6 pounds, 12 ounces and measured 19 inches in length at the time he took his first few breaths. A source at the time also said Gunner is rocking some blond hair and has a pair of blue eyes, two facts you can now verify for yourself… … because here’s your very first look at Spencer and Heidi’s baby! As for the somewhat unusual name? Pratt says it’s meant to be taken sort of literally. “He’ll probably be a pitcher, so when Gunner steps to the mound, he’s going to be gunning those throws down home plate,” Pratt explains , changing sports and adding: “If he wants to be a skier, he’s going to be gunning down those moguls. It just applies to a lot of sports.” That’s true. Not everyone names his or her offspring after a verb that applies to various athletic events… but, hey, not everyone is Spencer Pratt, either. Heidi, meanwhile, simply says Gunner was the “best fit” after a lot of “back and forth” debate regarding potential baby names . Pratt hammers home the pitching them a lot in this cover story, joking (we assume?) that one is “not a good parent if you’re not trying to get your son set up to potentially get a $250 million gig.” And he hasn’t forgotten about his feud with former co-star Lauren Conrad, either. That star gave birth to a son named Liam in July and Spencer really hopes the kids face off against each other on the diamond someday. “Hopefully they’re on rival sports teams,” says Pratt. “That’s what I‘m looking forward to.” For more from Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag – including exclusive baby pictures and Heidi’s five-hour delivery, along with who’s changed more diapers – pick up the new issue of Us Weekly. It’s on newsstands now. View Slideshow: Celebrity Babies: Who Became Parents in 2017 NOTE: Click through the gallery above for a look at ALL the famous people who became parents this year.

Jon Gosselin: I’m Going to Be a Stripper!

This is not a joke. Somehow, someway, this is really happening. Jon Gosselin is going to be a stripper. If you need to take a moment to clutch your pearls or take some calming breaths or to just laugh and laugh about how Kate Gosselin  could possibly be reacting to this news, that’s fine. Take your time. OK, now let’s get into the details. On April 1st, in Dusk Nightclub in Atlantic City, Jon will get on stage and strip down in a show called Untamed Male Revue. And we know all that because of this handy little poster he’s been sharing on Twitter: And we know, we know, all this is supposed to go down on April Fool’s Day. But, fittingly enough , April Fool’s Day is also Jon’s birthday — his 40th birthday, to be exact. So maybe he’s just choosing to celebrate his special day in a special way. It’s possible. Sources tell TMZ that Jon is actually friends with the people running the show, which is how he got involved . And, fortunately (or unfortunately? Depends on what you’re into, we guess), Jon won’t be getting totally nude on stage. He’ll be leaving his underwear on. Sources also said that Jon’s show will be more of a Magic Mike type of show, which apparently means more dancing and less “hump your face” action. Small miracles. In the weeks leading up to the show, he’s been doing a lot of rehearsing, and he’s even been working out, trying to get that old bod of his into decent shape for his big day. But while there’s all this information circulating about, and while people are insisting it’s not a joke, it seems important to note that in his Twitter post promoting the event, he wrote “Check it out, my big debut … ?” Not the most confident announcement ever, right? So there’s a chance that it still could be a joke, or maybe Jon is just doing another DJ gig for the real strippers to get down to. Or maybe all of our dreams/nightmares are coming true, and Jon Gosselin really is becoming a stripper. What a world. What. A. World.

Liam Payne & Cheryl Cole Welcome First Child!

There’s officially a new member of the One Direction Dads’ Club! Liam Payne took to Instagram moments ago to confirm that he and girlfriend Cheryl Cole have welcomed a baby boy. It’s the first child for both. Payne confirmed the news by posting the photo above along with a heartfelt message praising his loved ones and fans for their continued support: “My close friends and family know there are very few times when I’m left speechless… wow! “I’m incredibly happy to welcome our new baby boy into the world, it’s a moment that I will never forget for the rest of my life and my favourite memory I have so far. “I’m completely in awe of his incredible mother and how she has been the whole way through this, she’s really made my dreams come true. He added that the child does not yet have a name, writing: “We haven’t named him yet but he’s already capturing hearts including mine. I feel very blessed.” Cole posted the same photo to her own social media accounts along with the following caption: “On Wednesday, 22nd March Liam and I became parents to an incredibly beautiful, healthy baby boy, weighing 7lb 9 and looking like a dream. “Although he still doesn’t have a name he is already stealing hearts. We are all madly in love and overwhelmingly happy with our little arrival.” She added: “Happy Mother’s Day to all the mothers around the world. A day that now has a different meaning to me forever.” Yes, tomorrow is Mother’s Day in the UK, and little As-Yet-Unnamed arrived just in time the make the occasion all the more special to Cheryl. After meeting when he auditioned for The X Factor back in 2010,  Cole and Payne began dating last spring. The early days of their romance were marred by controversy, as it was widely rumored that Cole had left her husband for Payne, who’s ten years her junior. (1D fans tend to scrutinize their favorite lads’ love lives just a bit.) Just six months later, rumors that Cole was pregnant with Payne’s baby began to circulate on social media. Just last month, Cole debuted her baby bump in public for the first time, and now she and the boy band beau are parents to a bouncing baby boy! Our sincerest congrats go out to Liam and Cheryl!

Amanda Seyfried Gives Birth to First Child!

Forget that nude photo scandal for Amanda Seyfried . The actress now has a very good reason to never have a worry in the world ever again. To some extent, at least. Because she just gave birth to her first child! Seyfriend and Thomas Sadoski welcomed a baby girl into the world this week, according to a rep for the 31-year old star. This exciting news comes just several days after the couple got married in a quiet ceremony. Sadoski announced the marriage during an appearance on The Late Late Show with James Corden when he took the host aback by referring to Seyfriend as his “wife.” He explained on air that they had recently decided to exchange vows… without really telling very many people about it. “We just took off into the country with an officiant and just the two of us, and we did our thing.” The ceremony was “beautiful,” said the former star of The Newsroom, and he had a very simple reason for wanting to be Seyfried’s husband: “She’s the person that I love and admire and respect most in the world.” AWWWWW!!!!!!!! As for this whole parenthood thing? Something that is new for both the actress and the actor? “I’ve never been excited by anything more in my life – and ready,” Seyfried told Vogue Australia about becoming a mother. The new mommy and daddy met while working together on the off-Broadway show The Way We Get By in 2015. They kicked off their romance when they reunited on the set of their upcoming film The Last Word and went public with their relationship about a year ago. At the premiere for The Last Word this month, Seyfriend reiterated that she’s “ready” to give birth, while Sadoski added: “It’s a pretty amazing thing. I just get to sort of hang back and watch it all happen. “That’s the great joy for me, trying to learn as much as I can — try to stay out of the way and not screw anything up too much.” Seyfried confirmed her pregnancy in a unique way, debuting her baby bump while promoting Givenchy’s new fragrance in November. We’re so very happy for this couple and for all the celebrities who became parents in 2017, a list of whom we’ve made below. View Slideshow: Celebrity Babies: Who Became Parents in 2017? No word yet on the name or measurements of the child. But whatever. Congrats to Thomas and Amanda!
