Kerry Washington Welcomes Baby Girl

May 2, 2014

The baby girl is the first child for the Scandal star, 36, and her husband Nnamdi Asomugha, a former NFL player.

Washington first showed off her baby bump in January at the 2014 Golden Globe Awards (and then later at the Oscar’s), three months after news broke that she and Asomugha were expecting their first baby.

“I feel like I have the best date of the night,” Washington said at the time. “My little accessory tonight.”

Washington and Asomugha began dating in the summer of 2012, and got married a year later in Hailey, Idaho.
