LOS ANGELES (AP) — Idina Menzel and Taye Diggs are new parents of a baby boy.

A publicist for the actors said Walker Nathaniel Diggs was born Wednesday. “Mother, father and son are all doing well,” Jessica Kolstad said in a statement Thursday.

Walker is the first child for Diggs and Menzel, both 38. The couple wed in 2003.

They met on the Broadway production of “Rent” in 1996. Diggs currently stars on ABC’s “Private Practice.” Menzel starred in “Wicked” on Broadway and in the 2007 film “Enchanted.” She also has made guest appearances on “Private Practice.”
