Former 'Friends' star becomes a dad. Friends' star David Schwimmer has become a first time father after his wife Zoe Buckman gave birth to a baby girl.

The couple have named the baby Cleo and have released a photograph which shows them cradling their new bundle of joy.

Buckman, 25, delivered the baby girl by caesarean section on May 8 in New York.

Schwimmer, 44, who played the geeky professor Ross Gellar, in the superhit TV series 'Friends' kept their joy private for a few weeks before making the announcement today.

The actor-director's representative said that Schwimmer "couldn't be more thrilled".

The couple wed in a secret ceremony in June after announcing their engagement in March last year.

The couple met in London in 2007 when Schwimmer was directing 'Run, Fat Boy, Run' starring Simon Pegg and Thandie Newton.

Part-time photographer Buckman was working as a waitress and served at Schwimmer's table at the Cuckoo Club in London's West End.
