Shemar Moore's baby journey into fatherhood

Shemar Moore expecting first baby at 52

Wheels up in 20 – Criminal Minds’ Shemar Moore and partner actress Jesiree Dizon have announced that they are expecting a brand new team member.

While on The Jennifer Hudson Show the 53-year-old S.W.A.T. star very excitedly shared with the audience that he was going to be a dad. Then in a beautifully put-together gender reveal video (language warning folks) posted to Instagram, the couple made it official.

“Mama’s smiling from Heaven 🕊️ … Miracles happen … Here comes the BEST part of my life ❤️‍🔥”

In the two-and-a-half-minute video, the couple is both seen chatting to the camera about their baby and what gender they think their little one will be.

Jesiree has two children from past relationships, a son Kaiden who is 16 years old and a daughter, Charli who is 5 years old. Jesiree said she would love either gender and touches on just wanting the baby to be healthy.

Shemar then talks about his Mother who passed away in February 2020 and how he wishes she was there to celebrate with them. He then goes on to say that if the baby is a boy he will be named Legend and if it is a girl she will be named Frankie.

The video ends with a helicopter flying over the party and the coloured smoke billowing from the aircraft revealed that the couple are in fact having… a girl!

Shemar mentions in the video that the couple is due February 8th so we are officially on baby watch as we await the arrival of little Frankie. We wish the couple all the very best!
