Montana Jordan is embracing fatherhood with enthusiasm. In an exclusive interview with People at the CBS Sit-Down Comedy Event in Los Angeles on Sept. 18, the Young Sheldon star, 21, shared his excitement about becoming a dad after welcoming his daughter, Emma Rae Jordan, in May with his girlfriend Jenna Weeks.
"It's been incredible. There's nothing better," Jordan shared, speaking about his experience as a new father. "Emma's four months old now, and although I've spent time with my nieces, this is a whole new level. I can't give her back," he joked. "But honestly, there's nothing more rewarding than being a dad."
When asked about what fatherhood has taught him, Jordan emphasized the importance of patience, a lesson he's learned quickly since Emma's arrival.
Jordan first introduced his baby girl on Instagram on May 21, posting a heartwarming photo of himself holding Emma Rae, wrapped in a pink blanket. He captioned the post, "God has blessed me with a beautiful baby girl. Emma Rae Jordan, Momma and Daddy love you forever and always."
Since her birth, Jordan has frequently shared moments of Emma's early months on social media, including a sweet photo of her visiting the set of his upcoming Young Sheldon spinoff, Georgie and Mandy's First Marriage. "Emma Rae on set of Georgie & Mandy's First Marriage," he wrote.
Talking about the new show, Jordan revealed that it will continue Georgie and Mandy's journey as they navigate life as young parents in Texas, dealing with all the highs and lows that come with marriage and raising a child. He also praised his costar Emily Osment, who plays Mandy, saying, "We've always had great chemistry. She's an amazing person and so professional, which makes working with her a joy."
Fans can expect a relatable, heartfelt continuation of the Young Sheldon storyline as Georgie and Mandy face the realities of adulthood, parenthood, and marriage.
