Tom Arnold‘s a dad!
The actor and comedian, 54, and his wife Ashley Groussman welcomed their first child on Saturday, April 6, his rep tells PEOPLE exclusively.
Son Jax Copeland Arnold arrived at 9:53 a.m., weighing in at 8 lbs., 12 oz. and measuring 21 inches long.
“We are still in a bit of shock,†the proud new parents tell PEOPLE. “It has been a long journey and the healthy birth of our son is a miracle.â€
The arrival of their baby boy is the light at the end of a very long tunnel for the couple, who faced infertility problems prior to becoming pregnant.
“I’ve tried with other people, but since there is a God we were unable to conceive. Now God said, ‘This is it!’†Arnold, whose marriage to Groussman marks his fourth, joked while announcing the news in January.
