Naomi Watts Reacts to Ex-Partner Liev Schreiber’s New Daughter: ‘We Love Baby Hazel!!’

Naomi Watts is rejoicing in the arrival of her ex-partner Liev Schreiber’s kid.

Schreiber, who is 55 years old, and his wife Taylor Neisen just became parents to a daughter in the month of August. The Ray Donovan: The Movie star made the announcement on Instagram on Wednesday and uploaded many images of the infant. His ex-girlfriend Watts, who is 54 years old, was quick to express her joy at the new arrival once she saw the photos.

“Baby Hazel is the cutest!” ,” the actress wrote in the comment section of Schreiber’s article after seeing his remark.

In the description accompanying his post, the actor revealed his daughter’s entire name as well as the specifics of her birth. The post included a snapshot of the baby girl’s hand gripping onto Schreiber’s thumb as well as a beautiful close-up of her tiny foot.

“So happy that Hazel Bee is finally here,” he added in the text. ” She came in the wee hours of the morning on August 27th, and ever since then, each day has been a dream. Both the mother and the infant are glowing with contentment and good health. I would want to thank everyone for their love and support.

In the meanwhile, Neisen made her own message on Instagram congratulating her friends and family on the birth of baby Hazel.

“With all of my heart. Hazel Bee Schreiber was the author. 8.27.23,” she said on Thursday beside a picture of her newborn daughter wearing a white onesie and sleeping on her back. The shot was taken in black and white. The photograph showed that Neisen’s hand was resting on Hazel’s stomach, and the infant’s little hand was wrapped around her mother’s thumb.

Watts expressed her happiness for the couple’s new child once again in the comments section of the post.

“So so lovey,” she added in the text.

Watts and Schreiber dated for 11 years before calling it quits in 2016, and they are the parents of two children together: Sasha, 16, and Kai, 14.

The following is an excerpt from a joint statement that the couple sent to PEOPLE at the time of their breakup: “Over the past few months we’ve come to the conclusion that the best way forward for us as a family is to separate as a couple.”
Watts and Schreiber have worked hard to create a stable blended family in the years after they divorced each other. A family portrait was taken of the exes, together with Watts’ husband, the actor Billy Crudup, and Neisen, upon the occasion of Kai’s graduation from middle school the previous year.

When they posed with Kai and Sasha, Jeremy Schreiber, Naomi Watts, and Billy Crudup, all ages 31 and 55, respectively, had huge grins on their faces.

Watts stated at the time in the caption of the photo she posted, “Congratulations to Kai.” “Congratulations to the Class of 2022 of #ModernFamily on your graduation!”

Sasha’s sixteenth birthday was recently celebrated at Watt’s as well as at Schreiber’s.

The King Kong actress published a photo montage on Instagram in July, in which she featured her baby in a variety of poses. Watts seemed to be having a good time as she smiled and embraced Sasha, who was looking very put together in a gray suit. She also revealed images from the past of Sasha when he was a little child, such as when he was sucking on his baby bottle, grinning for the camera, and dozing off in his mother’s arms.

Schreiber published an up-close photograph of himself and his kid on his personal Instagram account.

He wished him a “Happy Birthday, Handsome!” in his note.
