Now a family of four! Peter Dinklage and his wife, Erica Schmidt, have welcomed their second child together, Us Weekly can exclusively confirm.

The notoriously private couple did not publicly confirm the pregnancy. They were spotted out with their newborn at a concert in September.

Dinklage and Schmidt eloped in Las Vegas in 2005. They are already parents of a 5-year-old daughter, whom they welcomed in 2011.
