Josh Radnor, best known for his role as Ted Mosby in "How I Met Your Mother," and his wife, Jordana Jacobs, have радостно welcomed their first child, a baby boy, a few months ago. The actor shared the heartwarming news on Wednesday, February 4, 2026, via an Instagram post, featuring a carousel of adorable photos.

In his announcement, Radnor expressed his joy and wonder at the new chapter in their lives. "So my wife and I had a baby a few months ago (!!)," he exclaimed, offering a glimpse into their experience as new parents. He affectionately described their son, noting, "Here's what we know so far: His smile lights up the room. He's super observant and thoughtful. He gets hypnotized when I play him songs on the guitar. He thinks the word 'baba ghanoush' is hysterical. He's a total delight and Jordana and I are thrilled he's here".

The Instagram post included three touching photos. The first ছবি captured Radnor gazing adoringly at his newborn son. Another showed the baby resting on Radnor's guitar as he tuned it. The final ছবি depicted Jordana Jacobs in a hospital bed, cradling their newborn. The couple has chosen to keep their baby's name private for now.

Radnor also extended his gratitude to the listeners of his podcast, "How We Made Your Mother," for their kind words, acknowledging that he had shared the news on the show a few episodes prior. He further sent love to fellow new parents, remarking, "What a wild, beautiful, exhausting, heart-opening initiation. So grateful".

The actor, who generally maintains a private personal life, married Jordana Jacobs in January 2024 at Cedar Lakes Estate in New York's Hudson Valley during a snowstorm. They met in February 2022 at a sound meditation retreat in upstate New York.

The announcement was met with warm congratulations from fans and celebrities alike. "How I Met Your Mother" co-creator Craig Thomas also chimed in with a congratulatory message, quoting a line from the show: "Love is the best thing we do".
