Jimmy Fallon and his wife, Nancy, welcomed their first child, Winnie Rose Fallon, back on July 23. Just this past Friday, Fallon decided to reveal that the couple used a surrogate.

Speaking with Savannah Guthrie of “Today,” the 38-year-old talk show host said: “It wasn’t really a secret, but my wife and I had been trying for a while to have a baby.” he said they tried various methods and finally decided upon a surrogate. Most of Fallon’s colleagues didn’t even know he was expecting a baby to begin with.

Fallon said that he and Nancy decided they weren’t going to tell anybody: “It’d be just more fun if it’s just private between me and my wife. And then we get to introduce her to everybody.” And that’s what they did.

Why bring it up now? Who knows? Fallon and his wife, who is 46, have been married since 2007.
