As a fervent fan of Young Sheldon, I’ve been following Montana Jackson’s journey with bated breath since he first graced our screens as Georgie Cooper. But nothing could have prepared me for this delightful turn of events! Becoming a father at such a young age might seem daunting to some, but not for Montana. He embraces it with the same zest and enthusiasm that he brings to his acting.


Actor Montana Jackson, known for playing Young Sheldon, became a father for the first time with his partner, Jenna Weeks, in May.

They named their newborn daughter Emma Rae Jordan. 

On Thursday, the 21-year-old actor shared with People his thoughts on becoming a father at a young age.

‘It’s been great for me, man. There’s nothing better,’ he told the outlet.

In the show, Jordan, who portrayed Georgie Cooper, mentioned that Georgie is currently four months old. He also shared that he has two young nieces – one is five years old while the other is two years old.

‘So I’ve been around kids and I’ve always loved them, but I can give my nieces back.

He playfully remarked, “I can’t return her to someone else; I’m stuck with her,” but he quickly added, “Just kidding! No, she’s fantastic, really. Honestly, there’s no greater joy than being a father. Nothing compares, absolutely not.

His new show Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage debuts on October 17.

Shortly following the final episode of his long-running CBS sitcom in May, he announced that he had welcomed a new addition to his family – a daughter.

He expressed in his caption that God has given him a stunning little girl, whom they’ve named Emma Rae Jordan. His message conveyed that they, as Momma and Daddy, adore her deeply – their affection for her is eternal.

On her Instagram story, the social media influencer posted an image without a caption, showing their little girl sleeping peacefully in a pink-ribboned headband, nestled in her arms.

In the comments on his post, some of his Young Sheldon colleagues extended their congratulations for becoming parents.

As the character portraying young Sheldon Cooper, I felt compelled to express my heartfelt sentiments towards the on-screen version of my elder sibling, Georgie.

I’m absolutely thrilled! I can hardly wait to meet her! I’ve longed for the opportunity to become an uncle, and I couldn’t be more pleased for you! Bravo on your wonderful news, congratulations!

Jordan and his partner, whom he’s been seeing since 2020, unveiled their exciting news of expecting a child together on January 21st through charming photos from a maternity session featuring ultrasound pictures.

On Mother’s Day, Jordan additionally shared more photos from their photoshoot, expressing heartfelt praise for his significant other in an emotional message.

‘Happy Mother’s Day to the most beautiful momma in the world,’ he penned to Weeks. 

To the woman who not just made me a dad but continually inspires me to strive for more every day – I am truly fortunate beyond words. My love for you, Jenna, knows no bounds!
