Counting down the days! Jeffrey Dean Morgan, who slipped up that Hilarie Burton is pregnant with a baby girl, opened up about their expanding family in an exclusive interview with Us Weekly.
“I’m very excited. I think in my life, I think that being a dad is my favorite thing in the world, bar none,” the actor, 51, told Us at the Walking Dead season 8 premiere event in L.A. on Sunday, October 22. “So the opportunity to do it again, and maybe not screw it up as bad as I have already, that would be great.”
