Montana and Jenna went public with their relationship in 2021 when they were both high school seniors. The pair later welcomed their first child, a daughter named Emma Rae, in May 2024. The George & Mandy’s First Marriage star revealed he became a father by sharing a photo of himself holding the newborn, who was snuggly wrapped in a blanket.

“5/21/2024 God has blessed me with a beautiful babygirl. Emma Rae Jordan, Momma and Daddy love you. Forever and always,” he wrote in the caption.

The It Feels Evil star recently opened up to People in September 2024 about how he was enjoying fatherhood as a young dad. “It’s been great for me. There’s nothing better,” he told the outlet while attending the CBS Hosts Sit-Down Comedy Event in Los Angeles. “She’s 4 months old now, and I’ve got two little nieces, a 5-year-old niece and a 2-year-old niece. So I’ve been around kids, and I’ve always loved them, but I can give my nieces back.”

Montana joked that he “can’t give” his daughter back, adding, “I’m stuck with her.” He added, “I’m just kidding. No, but she’s great. There’s nothing better than freaking being a dad. There’s nothing better, for sure.”

Montana reprised his role as Georgie Cooper, Sheldon Cooper’s brother in George & Mandy’s First Marriage, which premiered on CBS in October 2024. He stars opposite Emily Osment, who plays his wife, as they raise their new baby in Texas “while navigating the challenges of adulthood, parenting and marriage,” according to a synopsis.

In September 2024, the actor shared that his baby girl visited him on set a month before the show’s premiere. “Emma Rae on set of Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage. #gmfm,” he captioned the sweet snap. In the photo, Montana held a director’s clapboard as his daughter gazed off at the production set.

George & Mandy’s First Marriage airs on CBS on Thursdays at 8 p.m. ET/PT.
