Zach Galifianakis is about to be a dad!
The Hangover 3 star skipped his You Are Here premiere at the Toronto Film Festival Saturday because his wife, Quinn Lundberg, is in labor, director Matthew Weiner confirmed to E! News.

Weiner said they found out last minute Zach wouldn’t be attending the premiere because the couple’s child was on the way.
“We literally found out on Friday,” Weiner said, adding, “Zach is going to be the best dad in the world.”
(Galifianakis’ manager told E! News, “[Zach] missed the premiere because his wife is very pregnant and about to give birth and he did not want to take the chance of not being in LA if she went into labor.”)
This will be the first child for the super private couple, who has yet to confirm themselves to the public that they are even married (!).
Rumors flew that the couple had tied the knot last year, after reports claimed Galifianakis and Lundberg had married under the radar in August 2012.

According to VancityBuzz.com, Galifianakis and Lundberg swapped vows during a private ceremony somewhere in the Furry Creek-Squamish area in the Canadian province of British Columbia.
When we asked Amy Poehler about the couple’s wedding around that time, the Parks and Recreation star told us, “[I'm] so happy for him, and Quinn, his wife, is so amazing. They’re awesome. He’s awesome.”
Congrats to the soon to be mom and dad!
