Congratulations
are
in
order
for
the
Netflix
star
and
her
husband,
Robert
Sweeting,
who
welcomed
the
birth
of
their
first
child
together.
Aduba
brought
the
iconic
character
Crazy
Eyes
to
life
and
embodied
Shirley
Chisolm
in

Ms.
America.
Now,
she’s
embracing
her
latest
role
as
a
mother.

Aduba,
42,
took
to
Instagram
to
introduce
the
world
to
her
daughter
Adaiba
Lee
Nonyem.
She
posted
two
adorable
photos
of
herself
holding
the
newborn
in
her
hospital
bed
on
Thursday,
Nov.
30.

“My
daughter.
I’ve
never
been
in
love
so
quickly,
so
deeply
in
my
entire
life.
I
really
don’t
know
what
to
say,
guys.
My
heart
is
full.
Thank
you,
God.
I
have
joy
like
a
fountain.
I
have
witnessed
a
miraculous
thing,
and
I
feel
blessed
to
know
you
are
ours.
We
love
you
so
much,
Adaiba
Lee
Nonyem
–
Daughter
of
the
people,
treasurer
of
the
mother’s
names
who
came
before
you.

“I’m
a
Mommy,
you
guys,”
she
wrote.

The
second
photo
featured
a
black-and-white
close-up
of
the
infant’s
tiny
little
feet
in
her
arms.

“Motherhood.
I’ve
joined
the
club.
I
hear
the
dues
are
high,
but
the
membership
is
completely
worth
it,”
she
continued
with
a
happy
face
and
“#grateful.”

In
June,
the
Emmy
winner
announced
her
baby
blessing
on
the
way.
She
posted
a
clip
of
herself
cheesing
while
holding
up
a
baby
onesie.

“What
a
blessing.
My
husband
Robert
and
I
are
so
happy
to
enter
this
next
chapter
together
as
parents.
I
am
beyond
excited.
I
get
to
be
someone’s
Mommy!
I
know
as
the
three
of
us
continue
to
grow,
our
only,
ONLY
goal
will
be
to
love
you,
little
one.
My
goodness.
Look
what
God
has
done,”
she
wrote
on
Instagram.

The
world
first
got
a
glimpse
of
her
baby
bump
at
the
Tony
Awards.
A
source
told

Us
Weekly in
June
that
Sweeting
was
devoted
and
doting
on
his
pregnant
wife.

“Ryan’s
been
so
sweet
and
doting
toward
Uzo,
making
sure
she
has
everything
she
needs,
whether
it’s
a
cup
of
tea
or
a
pillow
for
her
back.
He’ll
fix
her
breakfast
so
she
can
stay
in
bed
longer,”
the
insider
told
the
publication.

In
2020,
Aduba
and
Sweeting
married
in
a
secret
ceremony
and
kept
the
union
under
wraps.
In
2021,
he
revealed
that
he
put
a
ring
on
it
for
their
first
anniversary.

“One
year
ago
I
married
this
gorgeous,
talented
and
incredible
woman.
This
past
year
has
made
me
appreciate
the
fragile
nature
of
life
and
the
importance
of
living
it.
At
a
time
where
the
world
is
upside
down,
we
learned
to
find
joy
and
peace
in
each
other.
You
are
the
greatest
person
I’ve
ever
known,
and
I’m
proud
to
be
your
husband,”
he
wrote.

Congratulations
to
Uzo
Aduba
and
Robert
Sweeting
on
their
new
baby
girl!
