"Steve Martin has reportedly become a father for the first time. The comic actor is said to have been spotted with a baby alongside wife Anne Stringfield near their Los Angeles home, according to the New York Post.  The couple are reported to have welcomed their first baby together in December, and kept the news a secret from the press. A source said: &amp;#039;&amp;#039;They&amp;#039;ve had a baby, and how they kept it a secret nobody knows. Steve&amp;#039;s very private. They are thrilled. They worked hard to have the baby.&amp;#039;&amp;#039; Martin married Stringfield in July 2007 at his LA home after a three-year relationship. Tom Hanks and Diane Keaton were among the guests at the ceremony, having reportedly not known the couple were getting married and arrived assuming they were just invited to a party. A representative for Martin has yet to confirm or deny the baby news. Steve Martin has portrayed fathers in several comedy films in the past, including Parenthood, Father of the Bride and Cheaper by the Dozen.
