I love that Brian's baby is actually named Sutton, and I wanted to know
how Sutton Foster reacted to that news. She loved it. She loved being the namesake of our
sweet baby. Of course, we teased it in season two that if it was a girl, she'd be Sutton Foster,
and if it's a boy, obviously Foster Sutton. So, spoiler, it's a girl, and her name is Sutton
Foster, which is such... I just love the Easter egg for anyone who knows that she and I work
together. It's such a beautiful name. I've met so few Suttons, maybe one other Sutton ever.
I love her so much, and when we did season three, we had literally just finished doing Once Upon a
Mattress together on Broadway, and I missed her. So, it was wonderful to get to talk about her
and say her name, and I loved holding this little baby so, so much
that it was, I guess, made it all the more special that her name was Sutton.
