Does Andy Samberg have children? 

Andy and Joanne share one daughter, who they welcomed in 2017. Chatting about parenthood in early 2020 on Late Night with Seth Meyers, he said: "I feel like I'm working on a pretty signature dad bod. I pick her up a lot, so my guns are really rockin'. But I eat all of her bread crust, so my tum's a little fat. I've eaten more crusts in the last two-and-a-half years than in the rest of my life combined. I can't remember the last time I had a normal bite of a sandwich."

He continued: "She's very into The Nutcracker. The original. We took her to see a marionette show…and she flipped for it. And now we listen to The Nutcracker nonstop…On a loop. And she knows all the tracks, you know? It's pretty heavy."
