Greg Berlanti and Robbie Rogers welcome second child
The couple revealed they had a baby girl
Producer Greg Berlanti, known for the Arrowverse, “Riverdale” and “Love, Simon,” and his husband, former Los Angeles Galaxy player Robbie Rogers, welcomed their second child this week.
Mia Barbara Rogers-Berlanti was born on May 13, one day after Rogers birthday. The couple made the announcement on Instagram posting photos of baby Mia including a family photo of them with her and their three-year old Caleb.
“I couldn’t have dreamt up a more perfect way to celebrate my birthday,” Rogers wrote about his newborn daughter on Instagram.
Berlanti explained on his Instagram post why they chose Barbara for their daughter’s middle name.
“The ‘Barbara’ is for my amazing Mom,” Berlanti captioned a photoset of baby Mia. “Who, though she’s not here to share in this moment, will be watching over her granddaughter Mia forever— and laughing as Robbie and I figure out the parenting skills she mastered so perfectly.”
Berlanti and Rogers welcomed their first child, Caleb, in February 2016. The couple married in 2017.

By WESLEY CASE | At 80 years old, John Waters is still the ideal dinner guest — incisively sharp, quick-witted and funny as hell.
The chic Baltimore native proved it again and again in a recent Zoom interview, calling from his summer home in Provincetown, Mass.
The occasion was the Blu-ray releases of two of his movies — the 1977 dark comedy “Desperate Living” and his enduring 1988 musical “Hairspray” — on June 23 by the Criterion Collection, which publishes restorations of films it deems culturally important. The Criterion stamp of approval has become the gold standard among cinephiles.
“It’s like getting an award,” said Waters, who wrote and directed both films.
