Breaking news: Gilmore Girls heartthrob Milo Ventimiglia, 47, and model extraordinaire Jarah Mariano, 39, are about to add a tiny new wave rider to their family. Yes, you read that right—Baby Ventimiglia is en route, and we’re already preparing our “aww” faces.
The big reveal came when Jarah decided to skip the usual baby bump photo on Instagram and instead hit the ocean on a surfboard, dropping the bombshell with the caption: “Baby on board!” Because, you know, why walk when you can surf into motherhood?
If you’re wondering how Milo reacted to this extreme sports pregnancy announcement, fear not! In another photo, both Jarah and presumably Milo (because who else would be throwing up hang-loose hand signals at a time like this?) flashed the classic shaka sign. It’s basically Hawaiian for “We’re cool, we got this.” So yeah, they’re clearly already nailing the whole chill parent vibe.
In classic Ventimiglia fashion, the couple never even officially confirmed they were dating before this baby news hit the waves. They’ve been living in stealth mode since early 2023 when rumors first started swirling. Then, in true secret agent style, they slipped off and got married in a private ceremony that no one saw coming. Like, poof—one minute he’s single, the next he’s husband and dad-to-be. Plot twist!
So, everyone, grab your sunscreen and surfboards, because the Ventimiglia-Mariano family is riding the biggest wave of all: parenthood.
And to Milo and Jarah? We say, Congratulations! May your baby always sleep through the night, and may your surfboards never lose their wax. 🏄♂️🍼
