Jon Stewart Baby Scoop
Jon Stewart has a new little person in his life, and we're not talking about Oscar.
The Daily Show fake news purveyor and soon-to-be Academy Award host is officially on diaper duty after he and wife Tracey welcomed a baby girl over the weekend.
"Mom, dad, baby and big brother are all doing great," reads a posting on the Comedy Central Website. According to Stewart's publicist, the child was named Maggie Rose Stewart. She made her big entrance Saturday in Manhattan, weighing in at six pounds, nine ounces.
Maggie is the couple's second child. The Emmy-winning Daily Show anchor, 43, and his wife, a 38-year-old veterinary technician, welcomed son Nathan Thomas in July 2004.
Stewart first announced he was expecting a daughter on The Late Show with David Letterman last October.
"I don't know that much about women," Stewart said on the show. "A girl, she's going to want me to have tea with her and her panda. Like, what am I going to do with that?
"A boy child, I feel like I'll know how to deal with it if he has a problem. I'll just be able to say to him, 'Well, repress it,' and he will hopefully swallow that, as I have. And then you figure you have 30 years before it comes out over dinner where somebody spills the gravy and then you're like, 'I hate you!' "
Stewart skipped out on Monday night's Daily Show taping but was due back at the desk on Tuesday. He will make the trip out to L.A. to host the Oscars on Mar. 5.
