Beanie Feldstein has revealed she quietly welcomed her first child with wife Bonnie-Chance Roberts earlier this year.
The 33-year-old actress gave birth months ago and said her baby daughter, whose name she hasn't revealed, 'is genuinely beyond my wildest dreams.'
She told People magazine this week: 'I really did dream her. I always wanted to be a mom, and I always wanted a daughter. I look at her every day, and I’m like, "You’re just beyond anything I could have even tried to imagine."'
The new mom, who announced her pregnancy in May, gushed: 'I love getting to watch her take in the world, it’s just the greatest gift, and getting to be a mom alongside my wife is the greatest gift.'
Feldstein also credited her wife's parenting skills, adding: 'She’s such a good mom, and it’s so special to watch. Motherhood is unbelievably beautiful.'
Despite her positive outlook on life with a newborn, the star said she suffered complications after giving birth but didn't go into detail.

Instead, she shared: 'I am learning my strength every day. I feel this new kind of depth of my strength from being a mom that I think is so empowering and beautiful and very new.'
The Booksmart star said a highlight following her daughter's arrival was seeing her smile for the first time.
And she recalled: 'I could feel her soul from the moment she was born. I remember people told me newborns are little blobs and they don’t really come alive until 6 weeks.
'I disagree with that completely. I could feel her soul from the moment I met her, but when you get to see that externalized in the smile, it’s so magic.'
Feldstein, who is the sister of actor Jonah Hill, began dating Roberts in 2018, they got engaged in 2022, and married in 2023.
They shared their baby news in a joint post on Instagram this past spring.
Feldstein cradled her pregnant belly while clad in a lacy dress in a carousel of photos.
'Limited Edition Scouse Beanie Baby coming soon!!' the expectant mothers wrote in their caption.

The couple tied the knot in a camp-themed wedding in 2023 at Cedar Lakes Estate in Hudson Valley, New York.
Both brides wore Gucci and posed for a Vogue magazine profile celebrating the occasion.
Feldstein, born Elizabeth Greer Feldstein, is a singer and comedian in addition to her acting chops.
She first gained recognition for her starring roles in Neighbors 2: Sorority Rising (2016), the comedy-drama film Lady Bird (2017) and the coming-of-age comedy film Booksmart (2019).
Feldstein's older brother is the aforementioned Hill, and their oldest brother, Maroon 5 manager Jordan Feldstein (1977 to 2017), died suddenly of a blood clot at age 40.
She made her acting debut in 2002, appearing in the ABC comedy series My Wife and Kids.
The Hollywood fixture can next be seen starring in the upcoming comedy Focker-In-Law, in theaters November 25.
