Jennifer Love Hewitt welcomes second child

Actress Jennifer Love Hewitt and her husband Brian Hallisay have welcomed their second child.

The couple's baby boy, Atticus, arrived on Wednesday, June 24, reported Us magazine.

Hewitt and the Revenge actor, both 36, announced they were expecting their second baby in January this year.

The couple's new addition now joins big sister Autumn James, 19 months.

The Criminal Minds actress opened up about her "magical" second pregnancy

in an interview in May.

"I'm grateful. It's not lost on me what a gift it is to be able to get pregnant," Jennifer said at the time.

"I've been an actress for 25 years, and have had to be hungry at times for my career, so being pregnant is completely freeing," she added.

"When I was expecting Autumn, I ate everything I saw! I told myself, 'Oh there's a doughnut — I should have that.' Now with this second pregnancy, I know the baby really doesn't need it.' So, I eat healthy foods in general, but I also indulge in little things that I crave."

Hewitt secretly married Hallisay in 2013.
