Seth Meyers reveals he and his wife secretly welcomed a baby girl in sweet video

Seth Meyers has revealed that he and his wife, Alexi Ashe, secretly welcomed a baby girl.

Their daughter, Adelaide, was born in mid-September, but the couple kept the pregnancy and birth of their third child a secret.

The chat show host, 47, revealed the news in a sweet segment on the Thanksgiving episode of Late Night with Seth Meyers, via a video featuring his two sons.

Before airing the video, Seth told viewers to watch very carefully for an ‘Easter egg’ and hidden message carefully concealed within it – which turned out to be a bit of an exaggeration.

In the clip, his sons Ashe Olson, five, and Axel Strahl, three, dressed up in turkey costumes as the United States celebrated Thanksgiving, and jumped up and down while gobbling.

They then pulled back a cushion to reveal their baby sister hidden behind it, and each gave her a kiss as they shouted ‘Surprise!’

Back in the studio, host Seth – who was joined on the show by his parents, Hillary and Larry Meyers and his brother Josh Meyers as guests – cried: ‘We had another one, you guys! We had another one!’

He explained that baby Adelaide was born 10 weeks ago, and was named after Seth’s grandmother.

Had Adelaide been a boy, Seth’s father had wanted to name her Albert – which Seth and his wife were against, as Larry has had six dogs, all named Albert.

Seth and his family toasted the birth of his daughter on the set as they shared a Kir Royale cocktail, which was grandmother Adelaide’s favourite drink.

The sweet revelation follows what was almost a big announcement on his show earlier this month, when comedian Pete Davidson appeared as a guest and teased his romance rumours with Kim Kardashian.

Seth clearly knew what the audience wanted, as he was met by cheers when he said: ‘I want to address something — I feel like I want to confirm if it’s real or a rumour.’

Saturday Night Live comedian Pete poked fun at the rumours but initially played along, saying: ‘I’ve been wanting to talk about this because there’s a lot of people I walk by, people are like whispering and making eyes at me.

‘But it is true.’

However, instead of going public with Kim, the 27-year-old said: ‘I do have a show on Tubi coming out.’

Despite this hesitation to make any official comment, it appears the rumours were true, as he and Kim have been seen together on multiple occasions, sometimes holding hands.

And, most recently, Pete was seen sporting a hickey on his neck – we think that’s about as close to a confirmation you can get.
