Chevy Chase, the renowned actor and former 'Saturday Night Live' cast member, has embraced a new role as a grandfather. His daughter Emily recently welcomed her first child with partner Alex Baglieri on August 1, 2024. The joyous news was shared by Emily on Instagram, where she posted a heartwarming photo of the newborn's tiny feet.
The 80-year-old actor had previously expressed his excitement about becoming a grandparent in a March Instagram post, eagerly anticipating the arrival of his grandchild. Emily, who is 25 years old, is one of Chevy's daughters, along with Cydney, 41, and Caley, 39, whom he shares with his third wife, Jayni Chase.
While Chevy is often rumored to have a son named Bryan Perkins, allegedly born in 1979, Emily debunked this speculation in a social media post, humorously questioning the origins of the myth surrounding her supposed half-brother.
Chevy, who was previously married to Jacqueline Carlin after his divorce from his first wife Suzanne Chase, has been happily married to Jayni since 1982. Emily frequently shares heartwarming family moments on social media, including a tribute to her father on his 80th birthday in September 2023.
Describing Chevy as her 'BFF,' Emily highlighted his remarkable life journey, from driving taxis in NYC to hosting the Oscars multiple times. She affectionately portrayed him as a loving, sensitive, and hilariously annoying figure, emphasizing the deep bond they share as father and daughter.
