👶 Wilmer Valderrama and Amanda Pacheco Expecting a Baby Boy

The “NCIS” star and his fiancée pre­pare to wel­come their sec­ond child — and their daugh­ter is already in big-sis­ter mode.

April 17, 2025 — It’s baby news for Wilmer Valder­ra­ma and Aman­da Pacheco!

The NCIS actor, 44, and his fiancée, mod­el and ocean advo­cate Aman­da Pacheco, have offi­cial­ly announced that they’re expect­ing their sec­ond child — a baby boy. The cou­ple shared the joy­ful news dur­ing a recent episode of Wilmer’s “Dos Ami­gos” pod­cast, and fans every­where are buzzing with excite­ment.

🎙️ The Big Reveal

Dur­ing the spe­cial pod­cast episode, Valder­ra­ma couldn’t hide his joy as he made the announce­ment along­side co-hosts and friends. “We’re excit­ed to share that we’re expect­ing our sec­ond baby — and it’s a boy!” he said, grin­ning. “Nakano is over the moon. She keeps telling peo­ple she’s going to be the boss of him.”

Aman­da joined him briefly on the pod­cast to talk about the preg­nan­cy and how dif­fer­ent it feels the sec­ond time around. “We’re still get­ting over how fast time flies. I swear we were just chang­ing dia­pers,” she joked. “But this time, we’re a lit­tle calmer. A lit­tle more pre­pared — hope­ful­ly.”

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Life as a Family of Three — Soon to Be Four

Wilmer and Aman­da wel­comed their first child, daugh­ter Nakano Oceana, in Feb­ru­ary 2021. Named after a dis­trict in Tokyo that holds spe­cial mean­ing for the cou­ple, Nakano has become a fix­ture on her par­ents’ social media accounts — always smil­ing, always explor­ing the out­doors, and already full of per­son­al­i­ty.

Valder­ra­ma, who played Fez on That ‘70s Show before becom­ing Spe­cial Agent Nick Tor­res on NCIS, has spo­ken often about how father­hood changed his life.

“Becom­ing a dad ground­ed me in a way I didn’t expect,” he said in a 2023 inter­view. “It brought every­thing into focus — my pur­pose, my lega­cy, and the kind of man I want to be.”

💍 Still Engaged, Still Strong

Though they’ve yet to tie the knot, Wilmer and Aman­da have been engaged since Jan­u­ary 2020. The cou­ple has tak­en a slow­er approach to wed­ding plan­ning, opt­ing instead to focus on rais­ing their daugh­ter and nav­i­gat­ing busy careers.

“We’ve always said we’re doing this our way — not the way peo­ple expect,” Aman­da shared. “Our fam­i­ly is strong, and we’ve built some­thing real­ly beau­ti­ful.”

🌊 A Shared Passion for the Planet

Beyond par­ent­hood and Hol­ly­wood, Aman­da and Wilmer share a pas­sion for envi­ron­men­tal caus­es. Aman­da is a cer­ti­fied dive­mas­ter and marine con­ser­va­tion­ist, and Wilmer fre­quent­ly sup­ports ocean pro­tec­tion ini­tia­tives through part­ner­ships and char­i­ta­ble events.

The cou­ple often blends advo­ca­cy with fam­i­ly life, tak­ing Nakano on eco-friend­ly adven­tures and shar­ing their love of nature with their grow­ing fan­base.

💬 Fans Celebrate the News

After the pod­cast episode aired, fans took to social media to con­grat­u­late the cou­ple. Many praised Wilmer for being a hands-on dad and appre­ci­at­ed the couple’s authen­tic­i­ty in how they share their fam­i­ly moments.

“Wilmer is going to be the coolest boy dad,” one fan tweet­ed. “Nakano and her baby broth­er are lucky kids.”

📆 Baby Boy Coming Soon!

With a due date lat­er this year, the cou­ple says they’re prepar­ing their home — and their hearts — for the new addi­tion. And while Aman­da is stay­ing active and healthy, she admit­ted, “There’s more baby laun­dry than I remem­bered. But we’re ready.”

As Wilmer wrapped up the pod­cast, he left lis­ten­ers with a touch­ing note:

“We’re just incred­i­bly grate­ful. To have a grow­ing fam­i­ly, to be able to raise our kids with love, adven­ture, and pur­pose — that’s the dream.”

And for Wilmer Valder­ra­ma and Aman­da Pacheco, that dream is just get­ting big­ger.
