Those fans who caught Smallville’s Tom Welling on Lucifer and made comments like “Tom Welling is Daddy now” are more accurate than you may have known!
Shortly after midnight on January 5, Tom and his fiancee Jessica Rose Lee welcomed their first child together. A son, his name is Thomson Wylde Welling. On Instagram, Jessica posted that he is “8 lb. and 8 oz. of pure love.”
This is the first child for Tom Welling who, of course, starred as Clark Kent in 10 seasons of Smallville from 2001 to 2011. Since the show wrapped, Tom has starred in several movies and made a return to television for Lucifer Season 3. He has also recently started attending conventions and meeting fans on that circuit.
Our congratulations to Tom and Jessica on your new addition!
