Riverdale star Casey Cott is a brand-new dad just weeks after the series wrapped its seven-season run.
He and his wife Nichola Basara welcomed their first child on September 18.
On Friday, the Katy Keene actor, 31, shared their first family photo. In it, he’s got his hand on the stroller in an elevator.
The new mom, dressed in bicycle shorts and an oversized t-shirt, looks into the stroller lovingly.
The Moulin Rouge on Broadway star captioned the post simply, introducing his son to his 4.4 million followers.
‘Cashius “Cash” Michael Cott 9/18/2023,’ he wrote.
