(Photo by Rich Fury\/Getty Images)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<div class=\"paragraph\">\n<p>During an appearance on\u00a0<em>The\u00a0Late Show with Stephen Colbert<\/em> this week, Mindy Kaling announced some huge personal news: that she&#8217;d given birth to her second child, a baby boy, last month.<\/p>\n<p>Kaling, who managed to keep her pregnancy a secret for the entire nine months &#8211; and an extra month after that &#8211; said, &#8220;I&#8217;m telling it for the first time now, it feels so strange. But I gave birth to a baby boy on September 3,&#8221; noting that her announcement is &#8220;news to a lot of people.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"paragraph\">\n<p>Kaling, who is also mom to a 2-year-old daughter, Katherine, revealed her newborn son&#8217;s name is Spencer. Similarly, Katherine&#8217;s December 2017 birth was a bit of a surprise to fans and she&#8217;s chosen not to reveal the father&#8217;s identity publicly.<\/p>\n<p>A few weeks ago, I heard a rumor via the celebrity gossip account <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/deuxmoi\/?hl=en\" target=\"_blank\">@DeuxMoi<\/a> that a famous Hollywood A-lister had been pregnant and had given birth, but the public was none the wiser. The anonymous DM shared to the account alleged that the celebrity had taken a whole lot of content prior to showing her baby bump, and was posting it throughout the whole pregnancy to throw the public off the scent.<\/p>\n<p>Sounds familiar&#8230;<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-captioned data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CFNSVJnjCNP\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"12\" style=\" background:#FFF;
