- 'Parenthood' star Mae Whitman welcomes baby boy
- The actress just had her first child
- She named her baby after THIS co-star
Hollywood's own Mae Whitman has just turned a new page in her life, embracing motherhood with open arms and a full heart. In a playful nod to pop sensation Justin Bieber, Whitman took to Instagram to announce the arrival of her "son, Miles," drawing a parallel to her cherished co-star, Miles Heizer. "He is the kindest, gentlest, smartest, funniest little beebee," Whitman gushes, "and he’s our best friend."
From on-screen siblings to real-life inspirations
Whitman's journey to stardom, notably as Amber Holt in the NBC hit 'Parenthood', has been nothing short of spectacular. Her on-screen brother, played by Miles Heizer, evidently left a mark so profound that Whitman honored him in the most special way possible. The duo's bond, having blossomed amidst the drama and laughter of 'Parenthood', proves that some on-screen relationships do find their way into the real world.

In her announcement, Whitman didn't miss the chance to express her gratitude towards the medical team at Moxie Birth and Huntington Hospital, and the overwhelming support from her circle of friends and family. "We are infinitely grateful he chose us as his parents," she states, echoing the sentiments of joy and thankfulness.
A nod to 'Parenthood' – The show and the journey
Whitman's pregnancy announcement earlier this year, featuring Heizer and their on-screen mother, Lauren Graham, was a delightful teaser for fans, hinting at life imitating art. Her character's pregnancy in 'Parenthood' now mirrors her real-life journey into motherhood, blending fiction with reality in the most beautiful manner.
Beginning her career as a voice actress and gaining fame through 'Parenthood', Whitman has showcased her versatile talents across various platforms. From voicing characters in 'Johnny Bravo' to recent projects like 'Skull Island', her career trajectory has been as dynamic as her performances.
As Mae Whitman embarks on this new chapter, her story reminds us of the beauty in life's unexpected turns and the enduring bonds formed in the most unexpected places. Congratulations to Mae and welcome to the world, baby Miles!
