Joey Lawrence and Samantha Cope are parents again!
On Thursday, April 9, the couple announced they’d welcomed their second baby together, son Ford Joseph Lawrence, in a joint Instagram post. The first photo showed Cope and Lawrence smiling together as the proud dad held up their newborn baby boy, whom they welcomed on Monday, April 6.
“🕊️ Ford Joseph Lawrence 🤍 Our newest member has arrived,” they wrote in their caption. “What an absolute blessing you are baby boy! It will be an Easter Weekend to remember forever. 4.6.26. God is so good!”
The two also included photos of Cope and Ford after what appeared to be a water birth, as well as other photos of the couple and their little one.

The two are already parents to daughter Dylan, 2. Lawrence also shares daughters Liberty, 15, and Charleston, 19, with ex-wife Chandie Yawn-Nelson.
Back in November, Cope and Lawrence revealed the sex of their second baby in a joint Instagram post. “Can’t wait to meet you baby boy 🩵👼🏼🪽,” the pair wrote alongside various photos of themselves and daughter Dylan.
In one image, Dylan, wearing a blue dress, sat on a horse while holding sonogram images of her sibling. Cope also shared a video on Instagram from the sweet family moment.
“I’ll never be over this feeling,” she captioned her post. “Thankful for our beautiful growing family 🩵 #gratitude.”
The Melissa & Joey actor wrote in the comments section, “I love this so much. Love you most baby 🩵.”
Lawrence and Cope revealed they were expecting again when they walked the red carpet at the 20th anniversary of Dancing with the Stars in November. Cope’s pregnancy news came after Lawrence seemingly hard-launched his reconciliation with the actress via Instagram in December 2024, shortly after the pair briefly split.
At the time, the Socked in for Christmas star posted photos of the pair at an event for their romantic comedy, Marry Christmas, which was filmed years prior. “My forever after,” Lawrence wrote in the caption.
Cope filed for divorce from Lawrence in August 2024, but she signed a motion to dismiss the petition months later.
