‘Gotham’ costars Morena Baccarin, Ben McKenzie are having a baby together

Prior to their work together in Gotham, Baccarin also had a three-episode arc on McKenzie’s classic Fox series The OC as socialite Maya Griffin. Regardless, now Baccarin is seeking primary physical custody of their son, because as her pregnancy progresses, she will not be able to travel to California, where Chick is based, for them to share joint custody.

Anyway, let’s put the drama aside for a moment and offer our congrats to Morena and Ben!

This is the first child for McKenzie, 37, and the second for Baccarin, 36, who has a 1-year-old son, Julius, with her ex.

This summer, Baccarin filed for divorce from Austin Chick, who she married back in 2011 and had her first child with in October of 2013.

Morena Baccarin is headed to court on Thursday as part of her divorce case from her estranged husband Austin Chick, and she plans to drop quite the baby bomb while she’s there!

Nowadays, McKenzie plays Police Commissioner James Gordon on Gotham, while Baccarin plays Dr Leslie Thompkins. Another source told Us Weekly that McKenzie and Baccarin are not only dating but also living together.
