Paul Greene shared the most adorable photos of his baby to Instagram
Hallmark star Paul Greene is enjoying his second time around as a father. The Canadian actor shared photos to Instagram of his new son, Austin, wishing him a happy “one-month” birthday.
“We are in baby heaven over here,” he wrote in the caption.
His Hallmark co-stars weighed in with their own comments.
“So precious!!!” wrote Erin Krakow.
“Eeeeee!!” wrote Andrea Brooks.
“Omg,” wrote Josie Bissett.
Greene and his fiancé, Kate Austin, welcomed their son on December 12 after a tense few weeks. Little Austin was due on November 25 but kept his parents waiting. Greene said the baby arrived after a “four-day” marathon.
“He is a super healthy little boy, and we are thrilled,” the 47-year-old star wrote on his Instagram.
Greene has an 18-year-old son, Olivier, with ex-wife Angi Greene Fletcher.
Natural dad
In an interview with People magazine, the actor said he loves being a parent.
“It teaches me to be kind and patient, and is a total learning experience, which keeps me young,” he shared. “I was born to be a dad.”
Greene has appeared in several Hallmark Channel movies, including Christmas CEO, which aired in November. He also plays Dr. Carson Shepherd on the show When Calls the Heart.
Season 9 of the series will premiere in March.
The return of Carson Shepherd?
Though Greene did not appear in any previews for the season, he has hinted to fans that his character will stay on the show.
In Season 8, his character was trying to decide whether to stay in the town of Hope Valley and propose to Faith (played by Andrea Brooks), who works in his clinic, or accept a fellowship to Johns Hopkins University and follow his dreams of becoming a surgeon.
In an interview on the Bubbly Sesh podcast, Greene said anything could happen.
“A lot can happen in the off-season” he said. “There’s a big-time jump in between seasons. Faith’s character became a doctor in the off-season. There’s so much that can happen.”
According to Greene’s Instagram, he and his family are living in a “baby bubble,” staying at their cabin on Lake Arrowhead in the San Bernardino Mountains.
“Loving every minute of it,” he wrote.
Kate Austin is an actress and life strategist studying online for her master’s degree in neuro-linguistic programming.
Greene, who recently recorded an album in Nashville called “Long Way Home,” told People magazine that music is a big part of their lives.
“I sang and played guitar to Kate’s belly while she was pregnant,” he said.
