<p id=”par-2_44″>Just a few days after <em>Young Sheldon</em> wrapped up its seventh and final season, Jordan, 21, took to <a href=”https://www.instagram.com/p/C7Pp33KPbFB/” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>Instagram</a> to share some major news. He and his girlfriend, Jenna Weeks, were now proud parents to a daughter. Emma Rae Jordan was born May 21. </p>
<p id=”par-3_30″>“God has blessed me with a beautiful babygirl. Emma Rae Jordan, Momma and Daddy love you. Forever and always,” he wrote alongside a photo of himself cradling the little one. </p>
<p id=”par-4_55″>Jordan portrayed Sheldon Cooper’s older brother Georgie Cooper on <em>The Big Bang Theory </em>prequel series. In season 6, Georgie, 17, and his girlfriend Mandy welcomed a baby named Constance. The couple married in season 7. Their story will continue in the upcoming spinoff, <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/emily-osment-suggests-georgie-and-mandy-marry-twice.html/”><em>Georgie and Mandy’s First Marriage</em></a><em>, </em>which will premiere this fall on CBS. </p>
<p id=”par-5_36″>Jordan and Weeks have kept their romance relatively low-key, though they appear to have been dating since at least late 2021. The couple announced that they were expecting in a joint <a href=”https://www.instagram.com/p/C2WVr09tpCe/?img_index=1″ target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>Instagram</a> update in January 2024. </p>
<p id=”par-6_72″>“You are so loved already little girl —- I can only hope that you share the best parts of both me and your dad!” Weeks wrote. “I hope you get his big heart and contagious laugh! In a world that is so uncertain, there is one thing that is, your dad and I love you endlessly and unconditionally, we will do our best to raise you in the eyes of the Lord.”</p>
