Kate Upton and MLB star husband Justin Verlander welcome baby boy
Kate Upton and her MLB star husband Justin Verlander have welcomed their second baby, according to reports.
The actress, 33, gave birth to their son, Bellamy Brooks Verlander, on June 19, a representative told TMZ.
Just one day later, Verlander, 42, was placed on paternity leave by the San Francisco Giants Friday to spend quality time with his wife and their baby.
The couple welcomed their first child, a daughter named Genevieve 'Vivi' Upton Verlander - in November 2018.
They have been married since 2017 after meeting in 2012.
Verlander will miss San Francisco's home series against the Boston Red Sox, which begins Friday night, after being put on paternity leave by the team.
The earliest the pitcher could return is Tuesday, when the Giants host the Miami Marlins at Oracle Park.
The MLB's paternity leave policy allows players to step away for up to three games, barring any issues requiring a longer leave.
If a player requires a longer absence, the team can apply to have him join the restricted list or go on family medical leave.
