“Today I was informed he had a baby,” Sebastian told Extra. Leading up to this, I didn’t know he was going to have a baby, but yeah, God bless him. “
“He’s very soft-spoken, loves spending time with his family, and I’m happy with him.”
Kim echoed the sentiments of her castmates.
“God bless him,” said the “Sex and the City” alum. “Tiffany is such a beautiful woman. She came to the set once with her family to watch her shoot and she was gorgeous and sweet. We are both happy.”
