Sebastian Bear-McClard, best known as Emily Ratajkowski’s ex-husband, is officially a dad again. He and girlfriend Alessandra Brawn have welcomed a baby boy named Dante, according to multiple sources. The little one reportedly arrived back around May, meaning this news was kept under wraps for months before it surfaced. The couple supposedly started dating in September 2025, though the two have actually known each other since childhood, which adds a whole extra layer to the story.
Brawn’s family situation is its own headline. She shares a six-year-old son with actor Will Arnett and has another child from her marriage to nightlife figure Jon Neidich. So Dante is walking into a seriously blended crew. On Bear-McClard’s side, he co-parents five-year-old Sylvester with Ratajkowski, and their divorce was finalized in July 2025 following infidelity claims that dominated entertainment coverage at the time.
What’s got people talking is the timing. Ratajkowski has been remarkably open about single motherhood, the messiness of early parenthood, and the fear of ending up raising a child alone. Seeing her ex launch a brand new family chapter while that conversation is still fresh has fans dissecting every date. Celebrity or not, it’s a reminder that moving on looks different for everyone, and the internet never stops keeping score.
