‘Riverdale’ Cast’s Children: KJ Apa, Vanessa Morgan and More
KJ Apa, Vanessa Morgan and more stars from Riverdale have offered glimpses at their off-screen families.
Apa, who plays Archie Andrews in the popular CW series, became a father when his girlfriend Clara Berry gave birth to their son in September 2021. “He is a perfect perfection,” the model captioned the Instagram announcement, which included a photo of their baby boy. “I am the luckiest to have now two men of my life, filling my heart with this cosmic gigantic vast love.”
The I Still Believe star shared his excitement about the next chapter of his life, telling Entertainment Tonight in April 2022, “When you have a child, it pulls everything closer in your life in terms of the people that you love, your friends. It really reveals the people who really matter in your life, and it all revolves around this one special thing that you’ve created. It’s the most incredible thing that’s ever happened to me.”
He added: “I find myself looking at him and getting goosebumps ’cause I feel like I’m looking at a version of myself — which I guess I am. I see a lot of Clara in him too, which is something you can’t really describe. You can’t really describe the feeling, it’s amazing.”
Meanwhile, Apa’s costar Morgan announced her pregnancy in July 2020. The news came six months after she exchanged vows with Michael Kopech — who was notably missing from her celebratory post.
After Morgan shared that she was expecting a baby, the Chicago Tribune reported that she and the baseball player had called it quits. The athlete had filed for divorce in his native state of Texas one month prior. At the time, the Finding Carter alum’s rep confirmed that Kopech is the father of her child.
Although Morgan has kept the status of her relationship with Kopech private, she has used social media to gush about her son.
