The '500 Days of Summer' actress and her fiance have welcomed their first child together and secretly tied the knot.

AceShowbiz - Zooey Deschanel is a new mom and wife. The "New Girl" star has given birth to her first child, a daughter, with her fiance Jacob Pechenik. Her representative confirmed the happy news on Monday afternoon, August 3.

"I am thrilled to confirm that Zooey Deschanel and her husband, Jacob Pechenik, are new parents to a beautiful healthy baby girl," said the rep, before adding that the pair are now officially husband and wife. According to court records, they tied the knot in Texas on June 21. Zooey's daughter was reportedly born last week.

Zooey and Jacob announced they were engaged and expecting a child together back in January. At that time, the 35-year-old actress told PEOPLE, "Jacob and I are over the moon. We are so excited to meet our little one."

In an interview with Cosmopolitan's June issue, Zooey revealed she had no worry to shed the pregnancy pounds as quick as possible after giving birth. "Haven't we all seen those pictures of a sexy new mom in a bikini after one month? I will not be that person. I've always gone my own course and never been someone who had the need to be super skinny," she shared. "I like a healthy look."

The "Rock the Kasbah" actress explained, "I don't buy into that skinny-is-better mentality. I just eat healthy and work out and don't worry about my weight too much. Actresses aren't models, and most of them never wanted to be."
