Anna Konkle has a lot to celebrate these days!
ThePEN15star, 34, welcomed her first child with writer and actor Alex Anfanger — a daughter named Essie Wunderle Anfanger — earlier this year, she revealed in an interview withVoguepublished on Friday.
“Hopefully she’ll appreciate the name instead of resenting us for giving her something difficult to spell,” Konkle continued.

Elsewhere in her interview, Konkle subtly revealed that Anfanger, 35, had proposed while listing things she was grateful for in the past year.
“And of course Essie, for being our wild, tiny, new best friend. You graced us with you,” she added.
In the profile, the actress also shared the first photos of the newborn — who has matching strawberry blonde hair — and opened up about her pregnancy journey.

“Alex and I conceived in April and found out in May,” thePlus Onestar toldVogue. “I was in Lake Arrowhead for the week, concentrating on editing, and my partner was in Los Angeles. There was snow on the ground where I was, and an hour away he was in 90-degree heat.”
“I took the test on a whim, thinking I was paranoid. We celebrated through tears on FaceTime,” she recalled.
“It only took me nine months to post but the family is expanding any second now ❤️,” she said an Instagram post.
