Congratulations are in order!
Emily Ratajkowski welcomed her first child, Sylvester Apollo Bear, with her husband Sebastian Bear-McClard.
“Sylvester Apollo Bear has joined the earth,” she wrote in an Instagram post on Thursday. “Sly arrived 3/8/21 on the most surreal, most beautiful and loving morning of my life.”
The model, writer and actor regularly kept fans informed during her pregnancy and wrote on Instagram on Wednesday that she ‘[about] to pop. ”
In October 2020, Ratajkowski announced in a personal essay for Vogue that the couple was expecting.
“When my husband and I tell friends that I’m pregnant, their first question to ‘Congratulations’ is almost always, ‘Do you know what you want?’ ‘, Writes Ratajkowski in the piece, which discusses gender, pregnancy and parenthood.
“We would like to reply that we will first know the gender before our child is 18 and that they will then let us know,” she said. “There is a truth in our line, one that points to possibilities that are far more complicated than what genitals our child may be born with.”

The 29-year-old model and 33-year-old producer of “Uncut Gems” untied the knot during a surprise ceremony in New York City in February 2018, after a few weeks of dating.
Ratajkowski opened her proposal in an interview with Jimmy Fallon shortly after she was married, explaining how the two made their own engagement rings.
“He introduced me to Minetta Tavern and he did not have a ring, so I was like ‘um, no,'” Ratajkowski said.
‘And then he took the paper clip with which the bill was paid, and made me a ring which I thought was really romantic. And then we make our real rings. ”
