Nickelodeon star Josh Peck and wife announce birth of third child and reveal newborn's VERY unusual name
The 38-year-old year old actor and his 34-year-old wife took to Instagram on Wednesday to share the first snaps of their newborn son, revealing his unusual name.
'Meyer Lane, we love you we love you,' the happy couple captioned the post, which garnered over 62,000 likes in four hours.
The name Meyer is of Hebrew descent and has a number of meanings including, 'giving light' or 'illuminating' in Hebrew, or it can mean 'Mayor' or 'leader' in German.
The name isn't a very popular one, ranking 3397 overall and 1825 in boyo names in the United States, according to TheBump.com
The first of two snaps showed Meyer in a white onesie with a green pacifier in his mouth.
The second snap showed Meyer swaddled in a white blanket with green stripes as he rested peacefully.
The couple, who tied the knot in 2017, are also proud parents to sons Max Milo, 6, and Shai Miller, 2.
Back in 2023, the couple broke down their parenting style in an interview with People, including Paige opening up about her breastfeeding struggles.
'I really had every intention of breastfeeding when we had Max, and then I quickly realized that I never produced enough milk,' she began.
'I kind of drove myself crazy for a few weeks, trying to really force it, and then we went to formula and had to try out a bunch of different ones until we found the right fit,' she added.
Those struggles lead to a partnership with Enfamil through their Enfamil Family Beginnings program that supports new parents.
Peck added, '"I always make the joke that there's not like a formula sommelier, someone to show you all the different kinds of formula, and you never know what's going to be right for your kids. So being able to sample things and figure out what's best for them is huge.'
He added, 'So that two in the morning [moment], when you just need reassuring or you need to ask a question, you have access to that. I feel like that's so incredibly worthwhile.'
'I think and it's why we were attracted to Enfamil Family Beginnings, was this idea of parents helping parents, you know, sharing their experience being willing to be vulnerable and talk about sort of the things that — the challenges that they face and whatnot,' he added
'I think and it's why we were attracted to Enfamil Family Beginnings, was this idea of parents helping parents, you know, sharing their experience being willing to be vulnerable and talk about sort of the things that — the challenges that they face and whatnot,' he added.
'And also, giving those little cheat codes and helping people to have access to things that are going to help them in in their journey and whether it's their formula journey or anything else,' Peck continued.
He described their parenting style as, 'laid back' as Paige said they have, 'a good balance going.'
'Josh is really hands-on and really helpful, which I'm very thankful for, and he and Max have kind of a very similar energy to them,' she added.
'For me, I'm definitely a little bit more relaxed and calm. I think it's just a good balance of our different strengths,' she said.
Peck was most recently seen in a role as Janowicz in HBO's hit series The Last Of Us and he has Nate & Al with Richard Dreyfus in pre-production.

Sydney's white T-shirt suggests there is more to The Bear than costume and drama
The Bear is back for season 4, but never mind Carmy's famous white T-shirt. All eyes are on Sydney, the quietly competent sous chef played by Ayo Edebiri, who has been breaking the internet with her own white tee. The Guardian's journalism is independent. We will earn a commission if you buy something through an affiliate link. Learn more. Designed by a small independent US brand called and worn as she is prepping in the opening episode, it mirrors the tight white T-shirt by Merz b. Schwanen preferred by her erratic boss. His crashed the company's website – and helped propel Jeremy Allen White to become the face (and body) of Calvin Klein. As a unisex top, and coming in at a third of the cost of Carmy's, it suggests there is more to The Bear than costume and drama. 'Audiences are more fashion-aware than ever' says Julie Garlejo, who started an Instagram account, @thebearoutfits, logging the show's clothes. 'We don't just want drama – we want characters who feel real, who look like someone we'd pass on the street or follow on Instagram.' A fashion photographer, Garlejo began documenting the clothes in season 1 'before the hype fully hit'. She says: 'I think we've moved from theatrical styling to authentic, lived-in fashion. These aren't just costumes, they're actual wardrobes.' The Bear is a gritty fairytale about family, ego and financial survival – not fashion per se. But as television has gained more respect as a medium, there has been a knock-on effect on the clothes worn by its stars, which now inform, reflect and even approximate the wider culture. This is not news to anyone who watched Sex and the City or Mad Men, which deliberately nudged products and placement. Jimmy Choo, Manolo Blahnik and Christian Louboutin all benefited from the former's popularity, while sales of Lucky Strike increasing by 10bn over the seven seasons the 1950s period drama aired. Yet Sydney's T-shirt feels different. Unlike big companies with familiar branding, is not well known. Choosing a T-shirt from an indie company with sustainable supply chains, made in LA with cotton from post-industrial waste, is more than just 'sartorial diplomacy'. It's a narrative shorthand for the identity and value system upheld by Sydney's character: most of her clothes come from independent or vintage shops; in contrast, Carmy wears a lot of Ralph Lauren. That it's cheaper – and unisex – than Carmy's simply underlines her battle for equality in a man's world. Given the scrutiny these kinds of shows are under, you can't fudge the details, as makers of the forthcoming Kennedys Netflix series, American Love Story, learned at their peril. 'Viewers feel emotionally connected to the characters, and what they wear becomes part of that intimacy,' says Garlejo. TV Easter eggs – covert messages planted within TV shows – are now part of our culture. Garlejo describes her 'logbook' as 'part detective work, part obsession'. She starts by zooming in on labels and logos, although reverse image search and the online community have been invaluable. It is not uncommon for online detectives to be in cahoots with the costume designers either – Garlejo has a direct line to its costumer designer Courtney Wheeler and assistant Lariana Santiago, and has published an ebook about the clothes. For small brands, appearing on a show can be life-changing. After the first season aired, Carmy's T-shirt sold out immediately (it's now in back in stock), while Sydney's $600 Madewell jacket, made from upcycled blankets, sold out in hours. Ariel Katz, who made Sydney's T-shirt for says he has seen significant interest since it was identified by fans, while an overnight tote bag carried by Sydney in episode 4 is also sold out. It helps, says Katz, that the clothes are worn 'so well' by Edebiri. Last year, Edebiri told the New York Times that her styling had played a crucial role as her profile rose as an actor. For a show preoccupied by realism, just how realistic is it for a chef to wear a white T-shirt anyway? Dara Klein, head chef and founder of Tiella in north London, has worn everything, but admits: 'A white T-shirt can be striking, resembling a traditional chef's jacket and also motivating you to work clean. These sorts of choices also depend on whether you're working in an open kitchen or not. Restaurants are similar in essence to a performance.' When Klein opens her own trattoria, she will wear a black T-shirt 'so I can work efficiently', she says. 'In my experience, it's not a choice that is imbued with a great deal of gendered expectation.'

Sean ‘Diddy' Combs faces growing wave of civil suits as criminal trial ends
After two months, the federal sex-trafficking and racketeering conspiracy trial of Sean 'Diddy' Combs came to a close on Wednesday with a mixed verdict. The jury acquitted the 55-year-old music mogul of the most serious charges – racketeering conspiracy and sex trafficking – but found him guilty on the two lesser counts of transportation to engage in prostitution. Still, this verdict marks only one chapter in Combs's mounting legal battles. Combs, who remains incarcerated at the Metropolitan detention center in Brooklyn, is now awaiting sentencing and faces a growing number of civil lawsuits against him alleging sexual assault and abuse. While the guilty verdict on two counts means that Combs is likely to face prison time, it spared him the possibility of a life sentence. The outcome was widely seen as the best outcome Combs and his legal team could have hoped for, outside of a full acquittal. The federal criminal case against Combs began after singer Casandra 'Cassie' Ventura – one of his former girlfriends – filed a civil lawsuit against him in 2023. In the civil suit, Ventura, who became the government's key witness in this criminal trial, accused Combs of physical and sexual abuse, rape and forcing her to have sex with male escorts. Combs denied the allegations, and the lawsuit was settled within 24 hours. During the federal trial, Ventura testified that the settlement amount was $20m. Since Ventura's 2023 lawsuit against Combs, more than 50 additional civil lawsuits have been filed against the music mogul by both men and women, accusing him of sexual assault, rape, drugging and physical violence. More lawsuits were filed as recently as this week and last week. Combs has repeatedly denied all the allegations against him in the civil filings. The judge overseeing the case denied his request for bail following Wednesday's verdict. The judge tentatively proposed October for sentencing, though Combs's legal team has requested an earlier date. Each of the two counts that Combs was convicted of carry maximum sentences of 10 years. The judge has discretion to impose a shorter sentence and may allow the two terms to run concurrently. The 10 months Combs has already spent in custody will also likely count toward his sentence. Outside the courthouse on Wednesday, a crowd of Combs's supporters gathered to celebrate the partial acquittal, chanting his name and cheering as members of his family exited the building. But while his fans rejoiced, many victims' advocacy organizations expressed disappointment in the verdict. UltraViolet, a women's rights organization that staged a demonstration last week outside the trial in support of sexual assault survivors, called the verdict 'not just a stain on a criminal justice system that for decades has failed to hold accountable abusers like Diddy, it's also an indictment of a culture in which not believing women and victims of sexual assault remains endemic'. Fatima Goss Graves, president and CEO of the National Women's Law Center and co-founder of the Time's Up legal defense fund, issued a statement expressing solidarity with the 'courageous and inspiring survivors who chose to tell their stories, hold their abuser accountable, and seek justice'. Douglas Wigdor, an attorney for Ventura, said that 'although the jury did not find Combs guilty of sex-trafficking Cassie beyond a reasonable doubt, she paved the way for a jury to find him guilty of transportation to engage in prostitution'. 'By coming forward with her experience,' he said, 'Cassie has left an indelible mark on both the entertainment industry and the fight for justice.' In the wake of the verdict, several celebrities took to social media to share their reactions and support for Ventura. Singer Kesha posted on X: 'Cassie, I believe you. I love you. Your strength is a beacon for every survivor.' Actress Christina Ricci called Ventura a 'hero' and 'an inspiration' in a message on Instagram. Singer Aubrey O'Day, who was previously signed to Combs's Bad Boy Records label, shared a lengthy statement on her Instagram that read in part: 'It is heartbreaking to witness how many lives have been impacted by their experiences with Sean Combs, only for those stories to fall short in the eyes of a jury.' Actress Rosie O'Donnell expressed outrage online, writing: 'I guess a jury just never wants to believe that a woman stays because of power and coercion- wow – they just think women stay because what? money – fame – 'they love the abuse' – what a fucking joke – this decision got me angry.' And actress Evan Rachel Wood also weighed in, writing on Instagram that 'there is no consent in a domestic violence relationship. Period. Once the threat of violence is there, you comply. You do not consent, it is self preservation and survival.'

Horrified SNL star reveals he was sent an 'envelope full of BULLETS' during his time on the show
Saturday Night Live alum Bobby Moynihan has revealed that he was once sent 'an envelope full of bullets' while working at the iconic show. The comedian, 48, recently appeared on the Syd & Olivia Talk Sh*t podcast where he described the weird ways fans had reached out during his time on the show. 'I got an envelope full of bullets once at work - just like an envelope with a drawing of one of my characters holding a machine gun and the envelope had bullets in it,' a horrified Moynihan said. He continued: 'It was Riblet and there was like an amazing anime drawing of Riblet firing a machine gun. 'And then it had bullets in it and it was instantly taken from my hands.' Riblet was one of the comedian's recurring characters on Weekend Update, who was a crass high school friend of Michael Che. But bullets weren't the only strange fan mail he has ever received. Moynihan explained he also had to delete the Facebook app from his phone after receiving a slew of strange messages from fans. 'I just stopped looking at it,' he joked, adding he has not checked back in '20 years' - and there is a good reason why. The comedian explained that he was inundated with requests from fans for pictures of other cast members' feet. 'It was always like, "hey love you on SNL, tell Keenan he's awesome and if you can take a picture of blank's feet,"' he laughed. 'And I was like "What?"' he recalled. 'People keep asking me to take pictures of people or a couple times... to take pictures of their feet,' he mused, adding: 'It was always something about their feet.' The comedian added it was always female cast members that strangers requested feet pictures from. 'I have Fred Flintstone feet. I just got big old feet,' he joked in response to not receiving any requests for him personally. The NCIS: Origins actor said that while it didn't happen often, it happened 'enough times' that he said he decided he was 'done with Facebook.' Moynihan said he thinks fans felt comfortable asking him for strange requests because he is 'too nice,' telling the hosts: 'I think I'm a people pleaser.' Moynihan left SNL after nine seasons in 2017. He was known for portraying the likes of Chris Christie, Guy Fieri, Snooki, Weekend Update staple Drunk Uncle and Riblet. Riblet did not make an appearance during the 50th anniversary, but his iconic Drunk Uncle character made an appearance on the Weekend Update desk during the anniversary special. In March, it was announced the SNL alum will appear as a series regular opposite Tracy Morgan in an untitled comedy pilot from Tina Fey, Robert Carlock and Sam Means.
