Brian Austin Green almost didn't make it to his movie premiere—but he got some encouragement from Sharna Burgess.
Hours before the actor stepped out to attend the Los Angeles screening of Last the Night, the couple announced the arrival of their first child together. "Zane Walker Green born 6/28 at 12:12," Brian tweeted June 30 along with a photo of the newborn's hand. Sharna shared the same sweet snap to her Instagram, captioning her post, "My heart is now forever outside of my body."
While this is the Dancing With the Stars pro's first child, Brian is also dad to kids Noah, 9, Bodhi, 8, and Journey, 5, who he shares with ex-wife Megan Fox. He and ex Vanessa Marcil are also parents to 20-year-old Kassius.
Though he did make it to his film premiere, held at the Fine Arts Theater in Beverly Hills, Brian told E! News it was hard saying goodbye to Zane. "Sharna was the one that forced me to come here," he shared. "She was like, 'I'm fine. You can't miss this. You need to go.'"
As for how the duo decided on the name Zane, Brian said they ended up compromising on the moniker.
"You know, naming boys is hard," he noted. "And finding a name that goes well with Green is really hard. So, I like the name Walker. Sharna liked the name Zane, and we kept going back and forth between the two as first names."
Then, Brian continued, "I finally came to the conclusion one day of, 'You know what? This is Sharna's first child. I like Zane, it's an amazing name.' So I was like, let's do Zane Walker Green. And I think she appreciated it. And it's a really cool name."
And although baby Zane is just a few days old, Brian told E! News he already resembles "a mixture of the two of us."
"Just like the other ones," he noted of his older kids. "She has strong genes. I have strong genes. So apparently we're both mashed in there."
Now that Sharna and baby are home from the hospital, what will the next few weeks look like for the family?
"Just spending as much time as possible with Zane, with the kids, and really just making it a family environment," the Beverly Hills, 90210 alum shared. "What an amazing f--king year. You know, what an amazing week."
