Broadway/TV/film actress and former Dancing With the Stars (season six) contestant Marissa Jaret Winokur, 35, and her husband, King of the Hill writer Judah Miller are the proud parents of a baby boy. Their brand new son, whom they named Zev Isaac, was born on Tuesday, July 22^nd. Baby Zev weighed 8 lbs, 7 oz and measured 21 inches in length. Marissa shared, “He’s got a Winokur face and a Miller body,” adding, “my little miracle baby is here and I can’t believe it. He is so perfect.”

Zev is Marissa and Judah’s first child. A surrogate carried Zev (the couple’s biological child) for them, after being implanted with Marissa’s own fertilized egg. Marissa’s ordeal several years ago with cervical and uterine cancer left her unable to carry a child, following the removal of her uterus and part of her cervix. According to reports, both Marissa and Judah helped with the delivery.

Along with being the third runner-up on last season’s Dancing With the Stars, Marissa won a Tony in 2003 for her performance in Broadway’s Hairspray. Marissa also has her very own daytime talk show in the works for next year. Judah recently received his first Emmy nomination for his work as a comedy writer on King of the Hill.

Marissa’s former DWtS professional partner, Tony Dovolani, and his wife Trendalina will also be adding to their family very soon. They are expecting boy/girl twins in September, which will make three children. Tony and Lina’s daughter, Luana, is 2 ½.

Congratulations on your sweet little miracle baby, Marissa and Judah!
