Ria Atayde is officially a mom with the birth of her first child six months after tying the knot with husband Zanjoe Marudo in March.

Marudo announced on Facebook that Atayde gave birth to their first child on Monday, Sept. 23. He didn’t disclose any more details about his wife’s birth, save for a video clip of a baby in a carriage being pushed by a nurse at an undisclosed hospital.

The video also contained the text, “09.23.24,” referring to the birth date of their child.

“Eto na! Officially Zaddy ka na Z (Here you go! You’re officially a Zaddy, Z),” he wrote.

The actor also shared the same video on his Instagram Story. Atayde reposted her husband’s short video on her Instagram Story as well.

While details on the couple’s first child are yet to be disclosed to the public, an ABS-CBN News report said the actress gave birth early morning of Sept. 23.

Atayde and Marudo said “I do” in a civil ceremony witnessed by their loved ones in Quezon City Hall last March. The actress confirmed her pregnancy three months later, where she reiterated that she “didn’t owe anyone an announcement.”
