Now, after more than a year of uncertainty and lockdowns, the That 70’s Show alum confirmed to People that he and his wife became parents for the second time during quarantine.

‘We had a kid during quarantine,’ Grace, 42, told the magazine while promoting his new series, Home Economics. 

‘Then it was a lot of changing diapers.’ 

He went on share how during lockdown he went from playing video games and binge-watching TV to directing much of his attention to their new baby. 

So far there’s no word on whether they had a boy or a girl.

The couple, who will celebrate their fifth wedding anniversary in May, are also parents to their three-year-old daughter, Mabel Jane. 

It appears children are now playing a pivotal role in his life at home and his work on the new ABC comedy series.   

‘Every day, I’m leaving my baby to come to work and work with two babies,’ the actor shared about his nine-month-old co-stars on Home Economics, which also features Caitlin McGee, Karla Souza, Sasheer Zamata, Shiloh Bearman and Jimmy Tatro, among others.

‘In the script, it read very funny, and I’ve seen it now — it is very funny on-screen. But when I’m doing the scenes and my two scene partners are nine-months-old, it’s challenging.’
