'FBI' star Missy Peregrym has officially announced that she's a mom. She and her husband Tom Oakley welcomed their first child, a baby boy, on March 21.
Peregrym confirmed the news on April 28) via her Instagram, announcing that their bundle of happiness has made his way into their world. She shared a photograph of herself with her peacefully asleep baby and also revealed his name in the caption. "Otis Paradis Oakley Born March 21st," she wrote.
"These afternoon naps are the *greatest* feeling in the world. A huge thank you to Dr Brennan (and) his wonderful wife, Jais, as well as the staff at Lennox Hill for helping us bring our son into this (crazy) world. Thank you for continuing to be there for new families during this time," the caption continued.
The actress and Oakley had announced their pregnancy on October 22, 2019, by sharing a sweet video on Instagram. It was an adorable boomerang video featuring two adult-sized pairs of shoes being joined by a pair of baby shoes. "There's no more hiding it... our family is expanding!!!" she had written in the caption.
The announcement came just ahead of the couple's first wedding anniversary. Peregrym and Oakley tied the knot in Los Angeles on December 30, 2018. The news was announced by the actress via an Instagram post with the caption, "Happy New Year! Love Tom, Missy & Charly." Peregrym had walked down the aisle in a strapless Vivienne Westwood gown that she paired with sneakers while Oakley had donned a black Ralph Lauren tuxedo and matching shoes.
"Happy 1st Anniversary, my Tom," Peregrym wrote on Instagram to mark their first wedding anniversary. "What a great year... I can't wait to be parents together, our home will be filled with even more laughter (and crying)."
The actress mostly remained tight-lipped about her pregnancy in the months leading up to the birth of Otis but she did reveal in February that she had wrapped production on Season 2 of FBI earlier than her co-stars to prepare for the birth.
"Happy FBI Tuesday! Here’s some pics of my 8-month-old belly and how I was able to keep working... lots of people tied my shoes for me!" she captioned a gallery of behind-the-scenes images. "And the last is how we prepared for intense scenes."
