Mark Wahlberg & Rhea Durham Welcome Their Third Child
September 20th, 2008
Mark Wahlberg and his fiancee Rhea Durham welcomed their third child, a boy, Tuesday in Los Angeles.
A name was not immediately available.
The couple already have a 4-year-old daughter, Ella, and a 2-year-old son, Michael. Mark recently proposed to Rhea.
“We continue to grow in our relationship, and we have a much better chance of succeeding and staying together now,” Mark told Us magazine.
“I was not prepared to be married, no matter who it was when I was 20 or 30,” Mark, 37, added. “Committing to making it work and all the other things that go into building a solid foundation is where I’m at now.”
And while Mark and Rhea are thrilled about the expansion of their family, daughter Ella “was extremely disappointed when she found out that we were having a boy — she wanted a little sister,” Mark recently told Us magazine.
“She already had all these plans of dressing a little sister up in clothes,” he said. “But I told her, ‘Honey, that means you’ll be more spoiled than the boys.’ She goes, ‘Oh, daddy, I didn’t think of that!’”
Congratulations!

3 kids and still not married? Playing house is fine if kids aren’t involved-call me old fashioned but when kids start coming along make it legitimate and marry the girl already.
