A rep for the New Girl star says Deschanel and her now-husband, Jacob Pechenik, have welcomed a child.

“I am thrilled to confirm that Zooey Deschanel and her husband Jacob Pechenik are new parents to a beautiful healthy baby girl,” the rep said in a statement obtained by ABC News.

Additional details regarding the baby or the secret marriage have not been released.

In January, Deschanel, 35, told People magazine she was expecting, saying, “Jacob and I are over the moon. We are so excited to meet our little one.”

Later that month, it was revealed that the couple was engaged.

In a March appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live! Deschanel said she and Pechenik wanted to be surprised by the baby’s gender.

Deschanel was previously married to Death Cab for Cutie rocker Ben Gibbard. Their divorce was finalized in 2012.
