Will Ferrell Becomes Third-Time Dad

Will Ferrell may often play a big kid on the big screen, but the comedian has become a father for a third time, Access Hollywood has confirmed.

Will and wife Viveca Paulin welcomed Axel, their third son, on Saturday.

“All the Ferrells are well,” a rep for the star told Access.

Will and Viveca are also parents to Magnus, 5 ½, and Mattias, 3.

No word yet if the couple – rock fans who led an all-star performance of Lynyrd Skynyrd’s “Free Bird” on the final episode of “The Tonight Show With Conan O’Brien” on Friday – named their latest offspring after Guns ‘N’ Roses singer Axl Rose. Either way, Axel will have quite the home video of the night before he arrived.
