A walk through Christopher and Yolanda’s pregnancy

In late 2020, Masterson and Pecoraro announced that they were expecting. Not much later, Yolanda shared a couple of pictures flaunting her baby bump at the beach. On November 7, 2020, she posted two images on her Instagram account.

In the first one, the 36-year-old was looking down on her stomach while cradling her bump while sporting a black-and-white gingham bikini with a Yankees hat. The second photo, on the other hand, showed her smiling at the camera. At that time, the new mom captioned the post as baby Masterson.

A peek inside Christopher’s career

Masterson’s last film was the 2019 movie Beneath the Leaves, where he played George Middleton’s role. Before that, he played a guy on Ferry in the 2016 movie Urge. But his most prominent work to date is in the 2000 television sitcom Malcolm in the Middle, where he played the role of Francis. The show revolves around Malcolm, a genius boy in a dysfunctional working-class family portrayed by Frankie Muniz.

One image showed the baby lying beside a slate with his name (Mauz Mosley Muniz), birth date (March 22), and weight (7 lbs) written on it. Other pictures showed the baby sleeping on his parent’s lap or chest.
