Congratulations are in order for actress Rachael Harris — she’s a new mom-of-two! The 50-year-old Lucifer star and her husband, Christian Hebel, 42, welcomed their second baby, a son named Otto Hebel, on Saturday, Aug. 25, Rachael’s rep confirmed to People.

Rachael and Christian — who tied the knot in April 2015 after being introduced by mutual friends Neil Patrick Harris and David Burtka — are already parents to a two-year-old son named Henry Hebel who was born in July 2016.

“[Baby Otto] joins big brother Henry Hebel in his attempt to expand his parents’ hearts more than they thought humanly possible,” Rachael’s rep told People. The actress later shared the first photo of her newborn baby boy via Instagram.

Rachael and Christian previously announced they were expecting their second child together on Live! With Kelly and Ryan back in February. “I have breaking news for you guys, are you ready? Ok, this is a world exclusive… Myself and my violinist husband Christian Hebel are expecting baby No. 2,” the star revealed on-air at the time.

Rachael and Live! host Kelly Ripa, 47, have been close friends for many years — in fact, Kelly was one of only a few witnesses at Rachael and Christian’s 2015 NYC wedding! After the Hebels brought home their baby son Henry in 2016, Kelly posted a funny photo of herself and her husband, Mark Consuelos, “fighting” over the adorable newborn.

“When fighting over who gets to hold the baby, always remember to NOT drop the baby. See how good we are at this, @RachaelEHarris?” Kelly captioned a cute pic of herself and Mark cuddling Henry. We’re sure Kelly and Mark will be just as excited to meet Rachael and Christian’s second baby, Otto!

Just a few months before baby Otto’s birth, proud mom Rachael took to Instagram to wish her eldest son, Henry, a happy second birthday. “This little is TWO today! Happy Birthday Henry Hebel. Momma and dadda are over the moon for you,” she captioned a cute pic of Henry.
