‘Young and the Restless’ Star Michelle Stafford Becomes a Mom

Michelle Stafford, who’s arguably one of the best actresses in daytime television, has become a mama.

The Young and the Restless star welcomed daughter Natalia Scout Lee Stafford on Monday, People mag reports.

The baby -– born via surrogate after trying IVF for three difficult years –- weighed a very healthy 8 lbs., 3 oz. and measured 19 inches in length.

“She is healthy, gorgeous, and amazing.  Michelle is out of her mind happy,” says Michelle’s rep.

Fingers crossed there were no baby-switching shenanigans, like Nick and Sharon’s baby on the show!  (YES, I watch The Young and the Restless.  As a one-time soap writer, I watch it as RESEARCH, okay?  *Ahem*)
