Lea Michele, the beloved Glee alum, has expanded her family! The 37-year-old actress shared the joyful news on Instagram on Sunday, August 25, revealing that she and her husband, Zandy Reich, have welcomed their second child, a baby girl named Emery Sol Reich. The couple’s 4-year-old son, Ever Leo, is now officially a big brother, marking a new chapter for the family.
A Heartfelt Announcement
Michele made the announcement with a touching Instagram post featuring a photo of the family gently holding their newborn daughter’s leg. The caption read, “Our hearts are so full, Emery Sol Reich 💕,” expressing the overwhelming love and joy the family feels with their new addition.
Celebrating Ever’s Milestone
Just days before Emery’s birth, Michele celebrated another significant moment—Ever’s 4th birthday. The actress shared a sweet picture of herself embracing her son, who proudly wore a T-shirt that read, “In My Big Brother Era.” This moment highlighted Ever’s transition into his new role as an older sibling.
A Different Pregnancy Journey
In a previous interview with the media in July, Michele reflected on how her pregnancy with Emery differed from her first pregnancy with Ever, which occurred during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020. “It was an incredibly different experience being pregnant with Ever.
We were in California, and we were in a pandemic,” Michele shared. She described her first pregnancy as a period of staying at home with minimal activity, contrasting it with her second pregnancy, which unfolded amid the bustling streets of New York. As a busy mom and working actress, Michele’s second pregnancy was filled with the hustle and bustle of her vibrant life.
A Special Mother’s Day Reveal
Michele first announced her pregnancy in March with a heartfelt Instagram post, where she shared a series of photos cradling her baby bump. The post was accompanied by the caption, “Mommy, Daddy, and Ever are overjoyed. 💛” Later, on Mother’s Day, Michele revealed that she was expecting a daughter, sharing a touching image of herself holding her son and cradling her baby bump.
“The most beautiful Mother’s Day today, holding my son,n who made me a mama…and carrying my daughter. 💕💐,” she wrote, marking the special occasion with love and gratitude.
Lea Michele and Zandy Reich’s journey into parenthood continues to bring joy and warmth to their family. With the arrival of Emery Sol Reich, their hearts are indeed full, and Ever Leo is stepping into his new role as a proud big brother.
