JENNIFER Love Hewitt has welcomed her second child with former co-star and husband Brian Hallisay.

The Criminal Minds star has welcome a son, Atticus James Hallisay, a brother to Autumn James Hallisay.

Hewitt met her husband on the set of The Client List and the pair married in 2013.

In January she announced that she was expecting baby number two, a fact which was written into Criminal Minds before Hewitt’s character departed.

Hewitt told American Baby that she enjoyed being pregnant.

“Pregnancy is magical. I’m grateful,” she said. “It’s not lost on me what a gift it is to be able to get pregnant.”

“Because so many of us are busy or driven, we forget to take care of ourselves,” she said. “But when you’re pregnant, it’s all about you — and that baby inside of you. Enjoy a nap; for some reason our generation thinks we can’t do that! Really listen to your body. I hope to continue to be a little kinder to myself after pregnancy.”
