Shawn Ashmore and his wife Dana have become parents.

The 'X-Men: Future is Past' actor grabbed his Instagram account to announce the good news about the next generation of families with his "incredible" wife. The 37-year-old added a picture of his son's tiny hand to the post and wrote: "I couldn't be more in love with my newborn son and my incredible wife." 33-year-old Dana also shared her happiness with the fans and released a video of the cute baby and a picture of his feet. She wrote "We did it !!!" and "So in love". The name of the Ashmore offspring is not yet known.

Back in April, the actor told HollywoodLife.com how much he was looking forward to his future role as a father: "I'm ready now. It's real. It feels very real now. We had been thinking about it for a long time and in a few months it will be ready. I'm ready, I'm excited. I can't wait to be a father! " Ashmore got expert advice from his brother, who had his first child last year.
