Henry Winkler Quietly Welcomed His 7th Grandchild—See The Sneaky Announcement

Henry Winkler Grandchild

For decades, we’ve loved Henry Winkler. He first came into most of our lives as the lovable tough guy Arthur Fonzarelli on Happy Days. These days, Henry’s hair is grayer with a lot less grease, and instead of answering to “Fonz,” he has a new favorite nickname. Henry Winkler is the consummate family man who loves his three kids and can’t get enough of his grandchildren. He shared with People that at the end of November, he was the proud grandpa of six with one on the way. And it looks like his son Max Winkler and daughter-in-law Jessy Barden quietly welcomed their second baby last week. Jessy snuck the news that Henry Winkler has a new grandchild into her Instagram story on December 16.

Henry Winkler’s Seventh Grandchild Is Officially Here

Jessy shared a photo of pumped breastmilk and admitted she had no idea how soon her milk would come in with a second child. She wrote, “Your milk will come back immediately and with full power way more than your 4-day-old baby’s stomach can handle.” She advised new moms to pump as soon as possible.

A few slides later, Jessy apologized for being in her pajamas, saying, “I had a baby five days ago. I’m sorry if you didn’t know that.”

She gave no other details about the new bundle of joy but shared a picture of herself and Max in the hospital while she held her new baby. Max looks so much like Henry Winkler that it’s crazy, and he seems as loving and doting as his famous pop, feeding his wife, who no doubt felt famished after giving birth.

She captioned the photo set, “I am late posting these insane images that i absolutely love and will cherish forever because i was giving birth to the child lol.”

There has been no word from Henry Winkler about this new grandchild, but there’s no doubt he is thrilled. He recently shared with People that he had seven ornaments on his tree for his grandkids Ace, Jules, Gus, India, Lulu, and Frances, and one for Max’s baby, who hadn’t been born yet.

“It is different, completely different than being a parent,” he said, “but it is filled with the same emotion… Every one of them is different. You have to approach each one completely differently.”

Congratulations to the entire Winkler family. What a great present this holiday season.
