HOLLYWOOD, Calif. — Jeffrey Dean Morgan and Hilarie Burton can definitely keep a secret.
The pair quietly welcomed a baby boy a couple of months ago, thanks largely to Burton being out of the public spotlight for nearly a year, a source tells Us Weekly.
No other details about the child were revealed.
The baby news comes just two weeks after Morgan, 44, and Burton, 27, went public with their relationship for the first time. The pair walked the red carpet together at the Los Angeles premiere of The Losers, Morgan’s new film.
Morgan and Burton have never confirmed they are an item, but they’ve reportedly been dating since 2009. Their romance reportedly sparked shortly after the end of Burton’s marriage to One Tree Hill assistant director Ian Prange.
The baby would be the first for Burton and second for Morgan, who has a 5-year-old son with actress Sherrie Ross.
