James Van Der Beek and Wife Welcome a Baby Girl
NEW YORK (CBS) James Van Der Beek is a new dad - and he's sharing his joy with the world on Twitter.
The former "Dawson's Creek" actor announced that he and wife Kimberly Brook welcomed daughter Olivia on Saturday.
"Had the blessing of becoming a father over the weekend... Couldn't come close to describing this bliss even if I had 140 million characters," he wrote on his Twitter account.
"Olivia Van Der Beek, born 9/25. I apologize in advance for any obnoxiously precious new-dad tweets that may follow. I'm under her spell," he added in another post.
Van Der Beek and Brook married in August. In March, he reached a divorce settlement with his former wife Heather Ann McComb. The two were married for six years.
