Chris Noth Father girlfriend baby Orion sonYou know that bloke from Sex And The City? No, not that one. Or that one. Or that one. The other one. Him, yes. Well, he's just had a baby.

Chris Noth, the man who played Mr Big in the Sex And The City TV show, has become a father at the ripe old age of 53. It's unknown what effect Chris Noth's new baby will have on the production of the forthcoming Sex And The City movie, but insiders are hoping that it will postpone the film indefinitely, demolish the set and burn down Sarah Jessica Parker's hair.

Oh, OK, not insiders. Us.

Now we're not saying it's a quiet news day, but we are reporting on the fact that a minor character in a show that hasn't been on TV for four years has just had a baby. Fill in the gaps for yourself.

Anyway, that minor character is Sex And The City's Mr Big, Chris 'no, not North. Noth' Noth. Chris Noth and his longterm girlfriend Tara Wilson welcomed their new baby Orion Christopher Noth into the world on Friday night. Noth's rep confirmed the birth in the following statement:

"I am happy to confirm that Chris Noth and Tara Wilson are the proud parents of a happy and healthy baby boy. Chris and Tara are thrilled and all are doing well."

We know - Chris Noth has a rep. That's the weirdest thing we ever heard. 

But still, Chris Noth's new fatherhood was news to us, but why? Why didn't we know that such an esteemed peripheral character in an old TV show had a baby on the way? Well, we've narrowed it down to a few simple reasons.

1) As a man, Chris Noth didn't have the opportunity to coat himself in half a foot of bronzer and then slap his naked pregnant belly out for an upscale glossy ladies' mag like so many other people do.

2) It's more important that we focus on Chris Noth's career, like that Sex And The City film he's bound to turn up in, and

3) Nobody has even thought about Chris Noth for about three years, including members of his own immediate family and the girlfriend he got pregnant.
