Game of Thrones star Carice van Houten has given birth to a baby boy!
Her partner, actor Guy Pearce, made the happy (and slightly strange) announcement on his Twitter page to his 12.3K followers and Carice then shared the post with a range of baby-related emojis.
“Both Carice and Monte are doing very well,” said a rep for Van Houten, according to the LA Times. The baby was actually born last week, but the couple are keeping mum on their son’s exact birthday.
Guy, 48, and Carice, who turns 40 next week, met while working together in the 2015 western thriller, “Brimstone”. They have been together since then, after Guy broke up with his wife of 18 years, Kate Mestitz.
The new parents have already decided to christen their son Monte, which is an Italian name meaning “mountain”. What do you think about this name?
Congratulations to the happy couple!
