Zooey Deschanel, star of TV show New Girl and film such as 500 Days of Summer, has given birth to a baby girl and got married, all in the same week!

Talk about doing everything at once - Zooey’s rep confirmed the happy news, saying she and new husband Jacob Pechenik welcomed their daughter in late July, and wed in a secret ceremony.

The actress confirmed her pregnancy and engagement in January this year, and later talked about how she was missing coffee and wine. 

Double congratulations to Zooey and Jacob!
