Routh and Ford got married in November 2007 after three years of dating. They announced the pregnancy back in March. "It's been so hard keeping the news to ourselves," Routh admitted at that time. "Everyone on set keeps asking, 'Do you have kids?' and I've had to say, 'Well ... not yet!' It's the truth. The baby hasn't been born yet!"
