Joey Lawrence, Samantha Cope Expecting Baby No. 2

UPDATE: Joey Lawrence and his wife Samantha Cope welcomed their second baby together—a son named Ford Joseph Lawrence—on April 6.

“What an absolute blessing you are baby boy!” the couple shared on Instagram April 9. “It will be an Easter Weekend to remember forever.”

The little one joins Joey and Samantha’s 3-year-old daughter Dylan Rose, as well as the Melissa & Joey star’s kids Charleston “Charli,“ 19, and Liberty “Libby” Grace, 16, with ex-wife Chandie Yawn-Nelson.

Joey Lawrence’s family continues to blossom.

Nearly a year after the Blossom alum reconciled with wife Samantha Cope, the pair shared they are pregnant with their second baby together.

“Nothing is planned. Not even this,” Joey, 49, told Entertainment Tonight while pointing to his wife’s baby bump while on the red carpet of Dancing With the Stars’ 20th anniversary episode Nov. 11. “This is not planned. No, I’m kidding. I’m kidding.”

And though the Melissa & Joey actor—who is also dad to daughter Dylan Rose, 2, with Samantha, as well as daughters Charli, 19, and Libby Grace, 15, with ex-wife Chandie Yawn-Nelson—is excited to grow his family, he certainly doesn’t want the spotlight on him during this moment.

“It’s not me. She’s the one actually doing the work,” he continued, looking at his wife. “I’m just here going, ‘Look at this.'”

As for how Samantha—who tied the knot with Joey in May 2022—is doing, she noted, “I feel great.”
