It’s official! Ben Feldman revealed to Us Weekly exclusively that he and his wife Michelle Mulitz are expecting their first daughter.
“It’s a girl,” the Superstore star, 38, said at NBC & Universal Television’s Superstore Academy For Your Consideration Event on Tuesday, March 5.
After joking that he and Mulitz are doing “a lot of drinking” to prepare themselves for the “terrifying” arrival of their second baby, the actor opened up about his wife’s support as the due date approaches.
“I’m going to New York to do press tomorrow and my wife secretly called my publicist and set up an extra day in New York and said, ‘Let Ben stay, he needs a vacation,’” the Silicon Valley alum told Us. “[She] got me theater tickets and set up a whole thing. She’s the good wife. We’re preparing [by] vacationing and trying to keep ourselves from going insane.”
Feldman and Mulitz announced in November 2018 that they are expecting again with a subtle Instagram announcement. In the family photo, he and his wife smiled at their 15-month-old son, Charlie, while sporting voting stickers. The actress’ white tee read, “Voting for 2.”
Mulitz gave birth to their first child in November 2017, and the little one has already had a couple playdates with America Ferrera’s 9-month-old son, Sebastian.
“America’s actually mad that we don’t hang out more,” he admitted of his Superstore costar. “But they’re adorable together. America’s kid doesn’t move around as much. Mine’s a little older, so he’s a psycho, so if they really hung out a lot, it would be a lot of my kid kind of pushing him and grabbing things and her kid just kind of, like, licking the air.”
Us broke the news in October 2013 that the Mad Men alum and Mulitz tied the knot in Maryland.
Superstore returns Thursday, March 7 at 8/7C on NBC.
