Actress Debby Ryan has welcomed her first child with husband Josh Dun. The couple announced the birth of their baby girl, Felix Winter Dun, through an Instagram post shared on Saturday, December 13. Ryan revealed that she gave birth earlier this month during an intimate home birth, surrounded by festive lights and winter scenery.
Debby Ryan shared a personal video from the birthing tub along with the first public photos of her newborn. One image showed Twenty One Pilots drummer Josh Dun holding their baby, while others captured quiet moments from the day Felix was born.
In her caption, Ryan wrote, “We sat under the full moon— the cold supermoon— reminiscing on our life as a family of two, and told the child I was harboring that we were ready to become three. By midday, Felix was born under christmas lights with snow outside our bedroom window, right into her father’s hands.”
The actress praised her husband, calling him “an incredible teammate,” and thanked her birth team and the women who supported her during pregnancy. Ryan also shared heartfelt words about her daughter, whom she affectionately called “lil moonbeam.” “Her hair is made of silk and her breath smells like vanilla ice cream and every chirp, squeak and whimper is music,” she wrote. “I’ve been a lot of things but her home, a grow light, a portal to bring a new soul into the world— these are my greatest honors.”
