The ‘Sheldon’s Badass Childhood’ actor became a father at the age of 21
Montana Jordan – the actor who plays Sheldon’s brother in the famous sitcom – has just welcomed his first child with girlfriend Jenna Weeks.
On Instagram on May 22, Montana Jordan shared a photo holding her baby and revealed the little angel’s name is Emma Rae Jordan. He wrote: “God has blessed me with a beautiful baby girl. Emma Rae Jordan, mom and dad love you so much, forever.”
The 21-year-old actor received congratulations from fans and colleagues. Iain Armitage, 15 years old – the actor who plays Sheldon Cooper – congratulated his on-screen brother: “I can’t wait to meet her! I’ve always loved being an uncle! So happy for you.”
Montana Jordan has been dating Jenna Weeks – a social media star – since 2020. The couple announced they were having a baby in January this year with an ultrasound photo.
Montana received the good news of becoming a father just a few days after ending seven seasons of CBS’s hit comedy TV series Young Sheldon. In the movie, Montana plays Georgie Cooper – the older brother of physics prodigy Sheldon. Unlike her genius younger brother, the character Georgie dropped out of school early and is passionate about business. Georgie is also a flower boy and had a child with his girlfriend when he was young.
When playing Young Sheldon (Sheldon’s Badass Childhood) in the first season broadcast in 2017, Montana Jordan was only 14 years old. The final episode of season 7 just aired on CBS on May 16.
Earlier this month, Jordan revealed he would star in a spin-off about Georgie’s small family. This film revolves around the story of a young couple raising children in Texas, USA, while overcoming the challenges of adulthood, parenting and marriage. The show started filming in July and aired in September.
