It's hard to think of a less likely prime time couple than Gossip Girl's Blair Waldorf and The OC's Seth Cohen. Off screen, though, the actors who played the characters seem to be a perfect match. And now they're parents, too!

Leighton Meester and Adam Brody, who tied the knot in 2014, welcomed their first child together on August 4. The couple kept the pregnancy under wraps, choosing not to officially confirm the news - even when Leighton's growing bump became impossible to miss.

Perhaps not surprisingly, they also kept the details of the birth to themselves, but TMZ is now reporting that the baby is a little girl named... drum roll, please... Arlo Day Brody.

Little Arlo's childhood will likely be very different from the one her now famous mom experienced.

Leighton, 29, has opened up about her "crazy" family in the past. Both of her parents spent time in prison for drug trafficking - the actress was actually born while her mom was incarcerated - and according to New York Magazine, her aunt became the first woman in the United States to get on the U.S. Marshals 15 Most Wanted List after she broke out of jail.

Despite all of that, though, Leighton has said, "It wasn't uncomplicated, but I played outside, I went to the beach. There were happy, fun times."

Here's hoping there are plenty of happy, fun - and blissfully uncomplicated - times ahead for Leighton and her growing family!
