Rep: Jason Priestley, Wife Expecting Second Child
Jason Priestley and wife Naomi Lowde are expecting their second child, their rep confirms to Usmagazine.com exclusively.
Lowde showed off her growing bump during a weekend shopping trip to Tiffany & Co.
The couple welcomed daughter Ava Veronica on July 2, 2007. Us Weekly named Priestley one of Hollywood’s sexiest dads that same year.”I love being a father. It’s totally ineffable,” he told ABC News Now’s What’s the Buzz shortly after Ava’s birth. “I love changing diapers. I love the whole thing — I’m all in.”
He and Lowde said they didn’t want to hire a nanny to help raise Ava.
“The time we’re going to get to spend with our daughter actually being an infant is so short that I really want to have that time with her,” Priestley said. “The fractured sleep that you get, the whole experience — I really want have it all and soak it in.”
The 90210 star (who is currently directing a few episodes of the CW spinoff) met Lowde, a makeup artist, in London in 2001. The following year, she helped him recover from a near-fatal race car accident at the Kentucky Speedway, in which he crashed into a wall head on.
They said “I Do” in a 1940s-themed wedding on The Bahamas’ Paradise Island in May 2005. Former costars Tori Spelling, Jennie Garth, Tiffani Thiessen and Ian Ziering were among the 120 guests.
