Milo Ventimiglia and his wife Jarah-Evelyn Mariano have announced the birth of their second child.
Milo, who has starred in This Is Us and Gilmore Girls, and Jarah-Evelyn shared the news on social media revealing their little boy’s name – Rock-Anthony Makoa.
Since they went from a family of three to four, Jarah said their life has been ‘chaos, but in the best way possible’.
‘These last couple of weeks have been chaos, but in the best possible way,’ Jarah wrote.
Sharing the interesting moniker they chose for their baby boy, she continued: ‘Welcome back home, Rock-Anthony Makoa Ventimiglia. Can’t wait for all of the adventures ahead with our family of five!’
Jarah and Milo announced the birth of their first child in February 2025, just weeks after losing their home in the tragic LA wildfires.
At the time, Jarah was praised for her positivity after she shared a lengthy message following the birth of her newborn on January 23, 2025.
Sharing a snap of her little one’s foot alongside her pooch’s paw, Jarah wrote: ‘Houseless, never homeless. Welcome back, Ke’ala Coral Ventimiglia. 1.23.25.’
‘[On January 7] my family and I evacuated from the Palisades Fire. We lost our home that we were living in and everything we own, as well as our home under construction that we were about to move into.’
‘I was 38 weeks pregnant, and I had done an evacuation only a few weeks prior during the Franklin Fire as well. I take it as a gift that I was able to essentially do a practice run for what was inevitably to come,’ Jarah continued.
‘I’m also forever grateful that we were able to evacuate from the Palisades Fire in the daytime, when we could feel more prepared and not caught completely off guard in the middle of the night, for example.’
‘My family and I are together, happy, healthy and safe, which is truly all that matters,’ Jarah gushed. ‘We are deeply grateful to all of the heroes who help battle fires, as well as care for everyone affected by the aftermath for years to come.
‘This will be an extended process of rebuilding and grieving for many, but we are feeling optimistic and inspired to welcome all of the exciting newness of our fresh start!’

‘A special thank you to all of those who have supported my family and I in this time; friends, family, my birthing team, hospital staff, companies gifting, LA community and beyond. Your love and generosity means everything to us,’ she told her followers.
‘Gentle reminder to all, to please allow us this time & space to nest with our newborn in such a delicate phase. We already have everything we need in abundance & will be back around with updates in our own time,’ she continued, before signing off: ‘Sending you Aloha and light always.’
Congratulations, Milo, Jarah, and Ke’ala on the birth of Rock-Anthony!
