"I'm thankful to be able to have three and be the best dad that I can be. It's the best title you have in this life.”
Only Raven Baxter could’ve seen this baby announcement coming.
More than six months after announcing her pregnancy, “That’s So Raven” star Anneliese van der Pol — who played Chelsea Daniels in the Disney Channel series — is officially a girl mom.
The birth was confirmed by People on Dec. 3.
The 41-year-old actress, who married her former “Raven’s Home” co-star and on-screen ex-husband Johnno Wilson last December — revealed her pregnancy on Instagram in June.

“WE’RE HAVING A BABY! We’re thrilled! And thanks to @babylist we are so prepared to bring this little one into the world,” she wrote in the caption while promoting her partnership with Babylist.
At the time, People reported that they were expecting a baby girl sometime in late October.
Several days after the initial announcement, van der Pol returned to Instagram with another Babylist ad.
“You can all of a sudden want a baby,” she said. “It wasn’t until I hit 40 that I wanted a baby and all of a sudden I really wanted one. I never thought about having a child. And then we got one — quickly.”
As for van der Pol’s husband, he couldn’t help but notice how much more emotional he was as a soon-to-be first-time dad.
“I legitimately cried during Mission Impossible,” he joked in the video.
“There are so many moments just, like, randomly throughout the day where I’m like, ‘Oh my god, I can’t wait until she’s here,’” he added.
Anneliese van der Pol had a golf-themed gender reveal
In a June interview with People, van der Pol opened up about how her pregnancy came to be.
The couple, who met on the set of “Raven’s Home” in 2017, initially agreed to focus on career and travel early on in their relationship. But after six years together, they decided it was time to take the next step.
So, they went to a fertility doctor and planned on going through with in vitro fertilization.
"Literally the day before we were meant to meet our IVF [in vitro fertilization] doctor, I realized I was late," she told People. "So I took a test, saw two lines, and canceled our appointment.”

For the gender reveal, van der Pol’s husband hit a golf ball that exploded into pink powder.
"I didn't realize how much I wanted a girl until he swung and it went pink,” she told the outlet.
"Of course, you just want a healthy child, and a boy would've been exciting too, but there's something about a girl in this time that I'm just so proud of," she added at the time.
The couple held a baby shower at the Babylist showroom in August.
“Absolute Baby Fever in Beverly Hills @babylist with @aveenobaby and friends and family. Our baby girl is already SO spoiled!” she wrote in an Aug. 4 Instagram caption.
The baby news comes one year after the couple eloped at the Santa Barbara Courthouse on Dec. 11, 2024.
“We were engaged a year ago today, and now we’re married!” van der Pol wrote in a Dec. 23 Instagram post.
