<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mae Whitman\u2019s longtime friend and Parenthood<\/em> co-star Lauren Graham recently confirmed that Carlos Valdes, Whitman\u2019s Up Here<\/em> co-star, is the father of her baby son, Miles. The revelation came during Graham\u2019s appearance on Dax Shepard\u2019s Armchair Expert<\/em> podcast on March 10, where she gushed about Whitman and Valdes\u2019 relationship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Graham, 57, shared that Whitman, 36, and Valdes, 35, are currently in New York, where Valdes is starring in the Broadway production of Hadestown<\/em>. \u201cCarlos, her baby daddy, is on Broadway in Hadestown<\/em>, which I feel happy to plug because he\u2019s fantastic in it,\u201d Graham said, praising Valdes\u2019 performance. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

She added that Whitman is now in Ireland for work, taking baby Miles with her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whitman and Valdes welcomed their son, Miles, in August 2024. Whitman named her baby after her best friend and Parenthood<\/em> co-star, Miles Heizer, who played her on-screen brother, Drew Holt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While neither Whitman nor Valdes has publicly commented on their relationship status, Valdes recently opened up about the challenges of balancing fatherhood with his Broadway career.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cNot a lot of people know this, but I\u2019m a dad, a relatively new dad,\u201d Valdes said. \u201cIt\u2019s my personal preference that I don\u2019t share more beyond that, but being a Broadway dad\u2026 let me tell you, it\u2019s not for the faint of heart! This life is pretty unforgiving when it comes to balancing it with parenting.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Valdes credited fellow Hadestown<\/em> actor Jordan Fisher, who previously played the role of Orpheus, for offering invaluable advice on juggling fatherhood and performing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe had our little sentimental \u2018passing of the torch\u2019 conversation, and one of the many things he imparted to me was that as dads, we have a superpower in playing Orpheus,\u201d Valdes explained. \u201cWe can allow the fruits of that experience to color our approach to this very childlike character in a natural and informed way.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
