Former Dawson’s Creek actor James Van Der Beek is a proud new daddy and he used Twitter to share his excitement.
Van Der Beek, 33, and his wife Kimberly Brooke welcomed a baby girl on Saturday.
“Had the blessing of becoming a father over the weekend… Couldn’t come close to describing this bliss even if I had 140 million characters,” Van Der Beek tweeted.
“Olivia Van Der Beek, born 9/25. I apologize in advance for any obnoxiously precious new-dad tweets that may follow. I’m under her spell,” he added.
Apparently the actor is already making plans for some quality daddy-daughter bonding, “If I watch football w/ my daughter now, she’ll like the sounds of the NFL & want to watch it w/ me when she’s older,” he tweeted.
This is Van Der Beek’s second marriage. He and Kimberly tied the knot over the summer, another joyous occasion he shared on Twitter, “The woman I love did me the honor of became my wife today…I look forward to earning her for the rest of my life.”
Congratulations to the happy couple on the birth of their baby girl!
