CSI: Miami's Emily Procter Returns to Set as a Mom

Actress and boyfriend welcomed a daughter last month. Check out her pip of a name!

What did Emily Procter do over winter vacation?

She just gave birth, that's all.

The CSI: Miami star and musician boyfriend Paul Bryan welcomed daughter Pippa, their first child together, early last month.

Procter returned to the set of the hit series only yesterday, but her character, investigator Caleigh Duquesne (who remained not pregnant throughout), will only miss one show before reappearing March 13.

"In a way, it fits that my first day back is [costar Adam Rodriguez's] first time directing," Procter told TVGuide.com. "Because I felt like he genuinely wanted me to have a healthy baby. He wanted me to be happy, and I wish the same for him. I think that's what you get after nine years together. It's that genuine want for each other to be happy."
