Baby Liam arrived while Parker was gearing up to represent France at the upcoming 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Other details about the newborn are still unknown. He joins 2-year-old big brother Josh, whom the 34-year-old athlete frequently shows off on Instagram.
Parker tied the knot with Francine, who's a French journalist, in 2014 in a wedding in San Antonio, Texas. He was previously married to actress Eva Longoria for three years before their split in November 2010.
He announced Francine's second pregnancy back in February. Back then, he also revealed the baby's gender in a Twitter post that read, "My wonderful wife and I are happy to announce that our son Josh is going to have a little brother! #family #theparkers #happy."
