John Stamos and Caitlyn McHugh are now parents to a baby boy, and we cannot help but be glad for them. The Fuller House star took to social media to announce the news of his fatherhood, revealing he and his wife have welcomed a son.

“From now on, the best part of me will always be my wife and my son. Welcome Billy Stamos (named after my father),” Stamos, 54, captioned a photo of the newborn nestled on his chest. “#NotJustanUncleAnymore #Overjoyed”

In December last year, the actor had remembered his father as he himself was on the way to being one, through an emotional Instagram post. 

“I will certainly fall short of the father my pop was, but – I’m going to give it my all! #Balance #BillStamos#Hero,” Stamos captioned a throwback picture of the two.

Earlier this month, the actor had also opened up in an interview with ET about why impending fatherhood was making him "so emotional." “I've waited my whole life for this,” he gushed. “I'm already so emotional and so excited... I've been dreaming about our baby. I mean, I am really excited.”

“I don’t know what I would do if I wasn't having a baby right now,” he explained. "I've done everything anyone could ever... I've had the most beautiful blessed life on the planet, and the most honest real thing I could do, I haven't done.”


Stamos and McHugh, 32, announced that they were expecting their first child in December, merely two months after he proposed to her at Disneyland, which holds a special place in both their hearts.
