Diane Farr welcomes son Beckett Mancuso
Numb3rs star Diane Farr and her husband Seung Yong Chung are the proud parents of a baby boy.
Beckett Mancuso Chung arrived at 8:56 a.m. in Los Angeles, weighing in at 8 lbs. 2 oz. and measuring 22-inches long, according to Diane’s rep, who said, "mother and baby are happy and healthy." Beckett was due in February so it’s very likely that he went past his due date and kept growing!
Beckett is named after Irish playwright Samuel Beckett while his middle name is a family name on Diane’s side. He isn’t the first celeb baby to have the late writer as a namesake. For more on celebrity babies named Beckett, click here.
The actress’s maternity leave will be brief – she plans on returning to the series for its May 18 season finale.
Diane and Seung, a marketing executive, were married in June. Beckett is a honeymoon baby.

I think Woody Allen named his daughter after the author as did Pierce Brosnan with his son!
