Kim Fields, who played Tootie Ramsey on ⿿The Facts of Life,⿿ has given birth to a son. Sebastian Alexander Morgan, who will be called Sam, was born Friday at The Mount Sinai Medical Center in New York City. The baby weighed 6 pounds, 4 ounces, said the actress⿿ publicist, Linda J. Stewart, in a statement Monday.
He is the first child for Fields, 37, and her fiance, Christopher Morgan, 30, a Broadway actor. Morgan was in the delivery room when the baby was born.
The couple decided to have a child last summer, Fields said in a statement.
⿿We were on the subway one day and Chris said, `I⿿m ready to start our family,⿿⿿ she said. ⿿It was beautiful and I started to weep.⿿
⿿The Facts of Life⿿ ran from 1979 to 1988.
Fields has an upcoming book titled, ⿿When Bad Women Happen to Good Men: A Collection of Short Stories.⿿
