AceShowbiz - Rhea Durham, the fiancee of actor Mark Wahlberg, has given birth to their third child together Tuesday, September 16 in Los Angeles, US Weekly reports. No further details of the newborn baby boy, including a name, have been released. He joins the couple's two other children; son Michael and daughter Ella Rae.
Rumors of a pregnancy began sparking in early April this year. Mark and Rhea remained mum until he took the initiative, confirming her pregnancy and the baby's sex in June.
Previously telling Access Hollywood that he found having kids as "a beautiful thing," Mark once even stated that he and Rhea won't stop at three. "When the kids are good, we want eight or nine," he was quoted as saying.
Having been together since 2001, Mark only proposed to Rhea recently. He told People magazine in an interview conducted in June that he and his model fiancee are planning to tie the knot after the birth of their third child.
"She wants to wait until after the baby. We've been very fortunate. We've waited and worked hard to really strengthen our relationship. We want it right," he previously explained on waiting so long to get married. "We're ready. I'm ready. She's been ready, but I think you know, we both come from broken homes and we want to succeed."
It has been rumored that the couple are planning a wedding pool party. Neither of them has denied nor confirmed the speculation.
