Overview
- The couple confirmed on Instagram Monday that their second child is a son named Rock-Anthony Makoa Ventimiglia and shared the first family photos.
- Multiple outlets report the baby was born in June, though the family did not publicly reveal the birth until Mariano’s July 6 Instagram post.
- Photos show older sister Ke'ala touching her baby brother’s hand and the family together in their backyard with their dog, underscoring the quiet, private tone of the announcement.
- Ventimiglia has spoken in recent months about adjusting to fatherhood and his hopes for Ke'ala to have a sibling, comments that framed media interest in the growing family.
- The post was framed as a hopeful milestone after the couple lost a Malibu-area home in the January 2025 wildfires and have since focused on rebuilding and family life.
