Ashley Olsen has welcomed her first child with her husband Louis Eisner, and everyone's making the same joke about the baby boy's name.
Sources close to the couple revealed to TMZ that the baby was born some months ago in New York, and the new parents are overjoyed to be new parents.
Ashley and Louis - the son of famed jewelry designer Lisa Eisner - got married in a private ceremony last December.
In light of this great news, fans and admirers couldn't help but express their astonishment. One enthusiast exclaimed: "HOW DID WE NOT KNOW ASHLEY OLSEN WAS EVEN PREGNANT," underscoring the element of surprise surrounding the couple's journey to parenthood.
Ashley has since revealed her baby boy's name - Otto.
This clearly struck a chord with some people, as they've been making the same joke - which bizarrely involves Tom Hanks.
Hanks recently starred in a movie called A Man Called Otto, which is a heartwarming story of a grumpy old man navigating aging as his neighbors attempt to befriend him.
Taking to Twitter, one fan responded with a gif of the movie, while a second posted a picture of the poster while adding: "Congrats to her!"
A third simply said: "A man called Otto," while a fourth person really got the joke, stating: "i guess you could say one day he’ll grow up to be a man named otto."
For what it's worth, A Man Called Otto is a great movie and the title character ends up being incredibly likable, so Ashley's new arrival shouldn't be offended by the comparisons!
Ashley and Louis have kept their romance largely a secret throughout the years after the sparks started flying back in 2017.
A snapshot captured in August 2018 depicted the couple leisurely strolling through the streets of Los Angeles, their arms intertwined in a display of intimacy.
As time progressed, whispers of an engagement began circulating in July 2019, notably when 37-year-old Ashley was spotted wearing a distinctive dark band on her ring finger, setting off speculation among fans and admirers.
Despite their guarded approach to their relationship, the year 2021 witnessed a few more glimpses of their connection. In a report from People, Louis himself shared a snapshot of Ashley on his Instagram, offering a rare insight into their private lives.
The couple even graced the red carpet together, presenting a united front and giving the world a glimpse of their relationship.
Ashley and her twin sister Mary-Kate, known for their iconic roles in the beloved series Full House, have long been familiar faces in the world of fame, having grown up under the spotlight.
Exploring their preference for a discreet existence, as mirrored in their minimalist fashion brand The Row, Mary-Kate shared her perspective with i-D magazine, reflecting, "We were raised to be discreet people."
Echoing this sentiment, Ashley added to the conversation, nodding to their younger sister Elizabeth Olsen, famed for her role in WandaVision, and musing, "I think that potentially that's just our aesthetic, our design preference."
We wish Ashley and Louis all the best as they navigate parenthood!
