Michael Weatherly’s 2 Children

Michael Weatherly, who played special agent Anthony DiNozzo for 13 seasons of NCIS, is a parent to three children.
Weatherly was first married to his Loving and The City costar Amelia Heinle from 1995 to 1997, and together, they welcomed son August in 1996.
The actor later married Bojana Janković in September 2009, and the couple welcomed their first child together, daughter Olivia, on April 10, 2012.
“Gentlefolk of Twitter and elsewhere, Bojana and I are proud to announce the arrival yesterday of OLIVIA WEATHERLY!” Weatherly announced on X at the time.
He later told PEOPLE that they named their daughter Olivia because Janković’s name “means war or warrior” in Serbian. He explained, “And when you give someone an olive branch, that’s an offering of peace, so Olivia is peace. I think we have a Tolstoy novel going on now: Mother and daughter, war and peace!”
Weatherly and Janković welcomed their second child together, son Liam, on Oct. 29. 2013. He wrote on X at the time, “Beautiful Bojana gave birth to 10lb Liam Weatherly today.”
In 2017, the actor told PEOPLE that he is “proudest of” his marriage and children and makes them a priority.
“I don’t bring my work home,” he explained. “I’m a single-track-mind person, so at work I do my work, but at home I’m devoted to my kids. Acting has given me a way of understanding myself. It’s made me a better person.”
Cote de Pablo’s Child

Cote de Pablo, who portrayed special agent Ziva on NCIS before exiting in season 11, is a mom to at least one child.
de Pablo revealed to PEOPLE that she was a mother while explaining how she embraced motherhood with her Tony & Ziva on-screen daughter, Tali.
“That was a really funny one for me because I am a mother,” she told PEOPLE at the NCIS: Tony & Ziva red carpet on Sept. 3. “Since I became a mother, it came sort of organic. However, obviously, exploring this, with Michael was a treat.”
The actress did not share the age, gender or name of her child. de Pablo also did not reveal the identity of the father, as she has kept much of her personal life private over the years. She was last romantically linked to Diego Serrano.
Lara Rossi’s Son

Lara Rossi, who plays Sophie Summers, has one son. She announced that she was pregnant with her first child by posting a mirror selfie of her baby bump in February 2022.
“98% baked 🥧 – CANNOT WAIT to meet my very own little Tiger/Fish, just like mummy of course ;),” she captioned the photo.
Rossi has not revealed the name of her son, but she’s shared videos and photos of the little one playing in the park, riding a scooter and sleeping in a stroller. She has also not identified her husband, but she posted pictures of the two kissing as part of a 2024 montage in January 2025.
In October 2023, Rossi reflected on motherhood while explaining how important it was for her to get back to her hobby of cycling for the first time since welcoming her son.
“Since becoming a mother, moments to myself are few, rare even. I’m grateful for everything today,” she captioned a photo of her riding a bike. “For my son, for my time, for the speed still locked in my thighs. I wish, more than anything, we could all experience freedom, that truly unique sense of abandon. It should not be a luxury.”
Maximilian Osinski’s Daughter

Maximilian Osinski, who plays hacker Boris, is a father to one daughter.
The actor married Severance actress Dichen Lachman on Jan. 24, 2015, and the couple became parents just a few months later when they welcomed daughter Mathilda in May.
In 2018, Lachman told Palm Springs Life that her then 3-year-old daughter loved “scribbling, Sia music videos and the family dog, Whisky.”
Over the years, both Osinski and Lachman have kept their daughter out of the spotlight but occasionally post photos of her tagging along for their adventures — including family trips to Italy.

Julian Ovenden, who plays Interpol agent Jonah, has two children with his wife, Kate Royal. The actor and the opera singer married in December 2010, at a chapel in Windsor Great Park in England.
Ovenden keeps much of his personal life private, but he revealed in a 2017 episode of the Little Known Facts podcast that he and Royal have a son, Johnny Beau, born in October 2009, and a daughter, Audrey, born two years later.
The family of four resides in England.
