Marcelino Benito announced that his second child, a baby boy named Mateo, arrived in early May 2025.
Here is what the KHOU 11 weekend anchor posted on Instagram:
"7 lbs 9 ounces of pure love and joy. Mom and baby Mateo are both healthy and doing great.
And big sister Emma is completely in love with her new little brother.
Thank you God for this beautiful blessing and thank you all for keeping us in your prayers last week."
Big sister Emma was born in 2022.
Benito joined KHOU 11 as a reporter in 2014 and was promoted to weekend anchor in January 2023.
And Benito's weekend co-anchor, Cheryl Mercedes, announced she has returned after a month away.
