The couple first announced their pregnancy news in mid-October. The Glee alum and his wifey shared photos on Instagram of them in a recording studio. There was also a video that captured the sound waves of their baby’s heartbeat playing off a laptop! In the last clip, Mia turned around to show off her baby bump! The American Crime Story star captioned the post:
What a clever way to make the announcement!! Famous friends and his former co-stars Jenna Ushkowitz, Kevin McHale, Lea Michele, and even Evan Rachel Wood were all SO excited to meet the little tyke. Wood pretty much summed up all our reactions by responding:
LOLz!! We wonder how she’s feeling now that the baby is out in the world!

As Perezcious readers and Gleeks alike know, Criss got engaged to Swier in January 2018, after they’d already spent seven years together! They tied the knot in a romantic ceremony at the Ace Hotel in New Orleans in 2019 and have been living seemingly happily ever after since.
Sadly, Darren’s little addition won’t get to meet one very important family member. The singer lost his father, Charles William Criss, in April 2020 after he succumbed to “rare heart condition” he’d been dealing with for many years. He was 79. Reflecting on the difficult loss at the time, Criss penned a heartfelt tribute on IG, saying:
We’re sure Darren’s father’s legacy will live on in the way his son steps into fatherhood now.
