The Wedding Planner star, 38, announced the couple were expecting through his official website on Tuesday. "My girlfriend Camila and I made a baby together," he says. "We are stoked and wowed by this miracle of creation and this gift from God, and so excited for the adventure that will come in raising this child… shepherding him or her through this life."
