Olivia Culpo and Christian McCaffrey have recently welcomed a new family member, their baby girl, a year following their wedding in Rhode Island. Here’s what the proud mother had to share about this joyous event.

Leoni started a new relationship with Daly soon after her divorce from actor David Duchovny became final. They had tied the knot in 1997, having first met on “The Tonight Show.” Their union has produced two grown-up children, West Duchovny and Kyd Miller Duchovny who are also actors. Prior to David Duchovny, Leoni was married to TV producer Neil Joseph Tardio Jr. from 1991 to 1995.

Daly remarried, this time to Leoni; he had been married before to theater actress Amy Van Nostrand and they have children named Sam and Emelyn together.

Prior to their encounter on “Madam Secretary,” both Leoni and Daly had built up their acting careers with a mix of TV and film roles. Leoni joined the CBS series boasting films like “Bad Boys,” “Spanglish,” and “Jurassic Park III.” She also featured in shows such as “The Naked Truth” and “Flying Blind.” Daly’s portfolio includes TV series like “Wings” and “Private Practice,” and he lent his voice to various Superman animated projects.
