Keith Lieberthal and Julianna Margulies Welcomed a Son in 2008
A few months after becoming newlyweds, Lieberthal and his wife became first-time parents to a son, as the actress's parents confirmed the news. "Obviously, I'm utterly delighted to be a grandfather. I have to say, he is cuter than any other baby I've seen," the actress's father, a doctor, said.
However, her mother decided to keep pursed lips on the matter, sharing, "I better not open my mouth. I don't want to get in trouble with my daughter." The "The Good Wife" — co-starring Chris Noth, Josh Charles, Matt Czuchry, and Archie Panjabi — star has since shared glimpses of her son on social.
Lieberthal has also been a regular on his wife's Instagram, and in November 2022, in honor of her husband's birthday, Margulies wrote, "Happy Birthday to this gorgeous human, inside and out!"
