“Glee” Star Matthew Morrison Is Officially a Daddy and His Son Has the Most Unique Name

It’s a boy for Mr. Schue! After seven years of serving as a role model to the fictional students of William McKinely High School, Glee’s Matthew Morrison has taken to the ‘Gram to make the big announcement that he’s now got a babe of his own to teach, as the 38-year-old has just officially become a daddy.

The actor announced that wife Renee was with child to People back in May, saying, “I’m so excited and I just want to be the best father I possibly can… The fact that it’s half me and half the person that I love most in this world…I’m so excited to meet our child and to see what he or she looks like, and to see what features of my beautiful wife that he or she has.”

That time has finally come, with the Tulip Fever star giving us our first glimpse at his new little tyke and revealing his very unique name in the process.

“To my newborn child, Revel James Makai Morrison,” he began. “Your mama and papa got this! Trust in us to guide and protect you always. To lay the tracks so your choo choo will run smoothly throughout this world. You will have all the tools to soar!” he promised. “We love you and are so thankful for your arrival. The adventures are just beginning.”

We got an even better look at the beautiful babe from Renee, who shared a photo of the infant in all his wide-eyed wonder as captured by photographer Issac Cohen.

The new mother crafted her own sweet message to her child, saying, “I’m in Revel Heaven… my Heaven on Earth. To give you life, to hold you in my arms, to comfort you, to feed you from my body… I can’t begin to express my immeasurable gratitude for being the one you chose as your mama! My Revel James Makai Morrison, I promise to cherish you, to constantly remind you that you are worthy of love and belonging, to teach you compassion and kindness,” she vowed. “I will respect you and go through every moment with understanding and patience… I promise to love you unconditionally forever and ever my little angel baby… my squeaks… my moon.”

She also gave fans a clue as to who the babe most resembled, saying, “I see so much of your papa in you already… I feel the calm I once felt inside of me… I cry from the overwhelming joy of finally being able to see your face that is perfection! My little wiggle worm… I hold my belly even now with sweet reminiscence… I am so proud to finally share you with the world. Here he is, ladies and gentlemen… our little Revel James!”

We can’t wait to follow along with all of the wonderful adventures these three are sure to have and post to their hashtag, #morrisonadventures.

I don't think there's a better way to describe Hilary Duff other than an icon. Starring in coming-of-age classics like Lizzie McGuireandA Cinderella Story, she shaped so many people's childhoods with her incredible acting skills and quirky antics. In her adult life, she continues to be a star, working on projects like How I Met Your Father and Younger. And, while her career accomplishments are beyond impressive, it really is how she manages to have it all that is truly inspirational.

Duff shared that she's expanding her sweet family with baby #4 in last December, and we couldn't be more excited for her! Here's everything we know about the wonderful big news.

How did Hilary Duff announce her pregnancy?

Image via Instagram

Hilary Duff dropped the big news on December 12 with an adorable set of Instagram pictures. The first one is of the front of the family's Christmas card and shows Duff with her family, as she holds her belly and looks surprised. The card says, "So much for silent nights."

We know never to just assume someone's pregnant, and, luckily, the second picture provided plenty of confirmation outside of Hilary's belly holding! The back of the card reads, "Buckle up Buttercups, we're adding one more to this crazy bunch!" So cute!

Hilary's husband, Matthew Koma, had his own cheeky way of announcing the big news. He posted the front of the Christmas card to his own Instagram account with the caption, "baby #4 is loading..." He also chose to add in a little cheeky location to the picture, which says "Vasectomy Clinic." I see what you did there, Matthew! 😂

Did any fellow celebs comment on Hilary's baby news?

Yup! Mandy Moore, Lucy Hale, Dakota Fanning, Ashley Benson, and many more shared their love and excitement for the expecting mommy. Alyson Stoner commented a super cute message on Duff's post that read "❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ just 8 more to complete the pack." This adorable nod to their Cheaper By the Dozen days is everything! We're so glad baby #4 already has such a strong village to welcome them.

How many kids does Hilary Duff have?

Hilary and her ex-husband, Mike Comrie, share an 11-year-old son named Luca.

In 2019, Hilary got re-married to Matthew Koma, and the couple welcomed two daughters — Banks and Violet. Banks is currently five and Mae is currently two. While it definitely seems like Duff has her hands full, she told Peoplethat she "loves this mayhem" and is "so in love with all my kids."

Has Hilary Duff shared anymore cute pictures of her growing baby bump?

Towards the end of January, Hilary shared a carousel on Instagram where the first image shows her taking a cute selfie in the mirror. She has a faux surprised expression on her face which makes us feel like she's bringing back the mirror selfie era. Aside from that, the carousel features candid images of her family and he beloved homemade sourdough bread which made her write this caption, "Soon this will all just be sourdough content," to sum up the content she shared.

Hilary Duff's latest pregnancy update on Instagram shows her sharing a touching moment with her husband Matthew Koma and their kids. She's seen wear ruched knit top that exposes her baby bump and it's almost giving us baby fever! And on March 20, Hilary shared a set of photos to Instagram that are getting us in the mood for spring. Sitting on a comfy white chair in a tank and shorts, armed with nothing but gold rings, tulips, and an amazing spring nail color, she lets us know she's still in the middle of "The wait…." It won't be long now!

As we count down to the days she gives birth, we'll share more updates throughout her pregnancy journey!

March is a time for fresh starts and new beginnings — especially if you're the Curry family! Ayesha Curryjust announced she and Steph Curry are expecting baby #4, and we couldn't be happier for them! With 12 years of marriage under their belts, they're one of the few celebrity couples that have stood the test of time, carefully balancing their beautiful family with their ever-burgeoning careers. Here's what we know so far about this fab family and their baby-to-be!

When did Ayesha Curry share her pregnancy announcement?

Sweet July, Ayesha's magazine, shared her sweet pregnancy announcement on Instagram last week in celebration of its first digital issue. Singer Ciara — who welcomed her fourth baby at the end of last year — commented, "Yay yay yay! ❤️❤️❤️" while other fans also expressed their excitement.

How old are Ayesha and Steph Curry's kids?

Ayesha and Steph have two daughters named Riley (11) and Ryan (8), alongside their son, Canon (5). We can't wait to see what name they'll add to this list with their latest little Curry kid!

How long have Ayesha and Steph Curry been married?

Ayesha and Steph Curry started dating in 2008 and have been married since 2011. Last year Steph Curry shared a touching anniversary post on Instagram that shared the wonderful moments of the 12 years they've been husband and wife. He said, "I’m thankful for every experience we have shared together. The highs, the lows, the ways life has brought us closer together through it all."

Excuse us while we grab tissues!

In the digital issue of Sweet July, Ayesha details her thoughts surrounding her pregnancy and the decision to grow her family. She said, "...last year, we looked at each other and agreed we wanted to do this again. For me, the decision came from always finding myself looking around and feeling like somebody was missing."

Although he hasn't publicly shared a statement with any outlets, Steph shared the cover of Sweet July's digital issue on Instagram and captioned the pic, "Vol. 4 ❤️👀😍."

All we can say is: oh baby!

Have Steph and Ayesha Curry chosen Godparents for their fourth baby?

Ayesha Curry as Heather with Lindsay Lohan as Maddie Kell in "Irish Wish"

When Lindsay Lohan revealed that Steph and Ayesha Curry are the fairy Godparents, we could hardly contain our excitement because it feels like an unexpected, but needed connection. Now that they're expecting another baby, we can't help but wonder if their baby will be lucky to have Lindsay as a Godmother. Although nothing has been 100% confirmed, Ayesha may have hinted that this may be the case!

During an interview with Andy Cohen to promote the upcoming movie Irish Wish, Ayesha talked about the excitement of working with Lindsay and whether she'll share a special bond with her baby. She laughed and told Cohen, "...we typically wait until after the baby is born to make these decisions."

Lindsay quickly chimed in and said, "You just reminded me of in Feud, the new Truman Capote [show] where everyone wants to be the belle of the ball and you just put her on the spot..."

As exciting as it is to know if Lindsay will be the Godmother, we can understand Steph and Ayesha's desire to take their time while making this kind of decision. Hopefully they'll share the news with everyone whenever they decide, but just know that our bet is on Lindsay!

Where has Ayesha Curry been spotted recently?

Ayesha Curry is proving to be one hot mama and we're 100% here for it! As reported by People, she was seen rocking a sultry lace-up dress by Dolce & Gabbana at a screening of Irish Wish and she looked absolutely radiant. Also, the moments where she spotted cradling her baby bump are too precious to ignore.

It may not seem like much, but seeing pregnant moms-to-be wearing stylish outfits makes us feel giddy.

I have such a love/hate relationship with haircuts. While I love the feeling of a fresh look as much as the next girl, I hate having to spend $100+ for a simple cut and blow dry session. During my recent trim, I talked with my hairdresser, Jack Rehak of Jack’s Hair Design in Hinsdale, Illinois, about ways to keep a haircut looking new and best practices for keeping hair healthy. Here's what he had to say!

Here's How Often You Should Cut Your Hair, According To Professionals

Photo by cottonbro studio/PEXELS

I’ll admit it — it had been eight months since my last haircut. My hair had lost its shape, my layers were nowhere to be found, and my ends were begging for mercy. Life got busy over the last few months and I was neglecting my haircare like never before.

My hairdresser could immediately see that I was beyond due for a cut and said I needed to get more taken off than I was hoping. I was definitely disappointed — I'd been working on growing out my hair for a while now, and it just felt like my hard work had completely gone to waste. He explained that getting consistent haircuts is the key to growing out healthy and strong hair, rather than letting it grow and grow until it eventually breaks. So let's dig into the top three things you can do to avoid this scenario!

1. Just Get The Dang Haircut

Also avoiding a haircut like I was? You might want to schedule one at your nearest salon. Like my stylist said, when you wait too long between trims like I did, you risk your hair becoming heavy, dull, and lifeless. When the hair is dry or even dead, it’s nearly impossible for it to hold a curl or style, essentially collapsing on you and taking on more and more heat damage all the while. I know the pain of spending time on a blowout only for it to fall minutes later — it’s the worst.

According to Jack, getting a haircut every 10-12 weeks is the best time frame or your ends will pay the price. Between blow-drying, curling, straightening, sun, and weather, our ends get dry and start to break without the proper care. Getting consistent haircuts allows hair to bounce back, shine, and perform the way we want in a healthy way.

2. Leave-In Conditioners Are Your Friend

His top piece of advice to keep your hair looking and feeling hydrated between trims? Invest in conditioning treatments. Jack swears by the Olaplex conditioning system, specifically the No 3 Hair Perfector. Made with patented OLAPLEX Bond Building Technology™, this conditioning treatment repairs and prevents damage in as little as three minutes. No 3 promises to reduce breakage and visibly strengthen hair, so it’s the perfect assistance to keep ends fresh between cuts. Another conditioning treatments I’ve used and loved for years is the Moroccanoil Intense Hydrating Mask, which is designed to restore moisture, elasticity, and shine to dry hair.

3. Switch Up Your Shampoos

Switching shampoos frequently is a pretty hot tip that I honestly hadn't thought of. Our hair gets used to the same products and grows tired of them, resulting in lackluster locks. Jack’s advice is to switch brands after finishing every bottle of shampoo to bring life back to your hair. Have two brands that you’re loyal to? Even switching back and forth between them after every bottle should make a big difference in your hair. I’m a huge fan of the R+Co Dallas Biotin Thickening Shampoo, which makes my hair look thick and full, as well as the Moroccanoil Hydrating Shampoo, which is so hydrating and gives so much shine.

In the end, navigating your back-and-forth relationship with haircuts often feels like a rollercoaster ride between wanting that fresh look and cringing at the receipt. Luckily, by using conditioning treatments and switching up your products,, you can keep your locks healthy, shiny, and full of life between trims. But take a newly learned lesson out of my book: don't let your ends pay the price for procrastination and just book the haircut.
