Gina Rodriguez reveals name of her first child with Joe Locicero, fans call her 'an absolute queen'
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Gina Rodriguez has unveiled the name and gender of her first child with her husband Joe Locicero. In her latest social media post, the 38-year-old actress shared three of her favorite things at the moment — her ABC series 'Not Dead Yet', 'getting back to dancing', and her baby boy named Charlie. Last month, the Golden Globe winner and 'The Bold And The Beautiful' actor, 36, welcomed their first child together. Although the couple has kept their newborn son's face private, Gina Rodriguez, has now announced their baby's name and gender through an Instagram post.
"My three favs, my baby Charlie, Not dead yet (NEW EPISODE TONIGHT with the great @pellpix), and getting back to dancing (you are incredible @sashafarber1) and yes, I am breastfeeding while ballroom)," wrote Rodriguez in the post's caption. She went on to express gratitude to her fans for their support, saying, "THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO HAS BEEN SUPPORTING OUR SWEET SHOW. I LOVE YOU." In addition to the announcement of her son's name and gender, Rodriguez's Instagram carousel included a video of her dancing while wearing a harness that held her baby close to her chest. As she practiced her footwork, Rodriguez held onto the hand of her dance instructor and also cradled her son Charlie's head with the other. The final slide featured a screenshot of a Hollywood Reporter article which stated, "The Gina Rodriguez-led series drew more than 10 million viewers over five weeks of multi-platform viewing."
