Nancy O'Dell welcomes a daughter

Access Hollywood host Nancy O’Dell, 41, and her husband Keith Zubchevich welcomed daughter Ashby Grace at 1:03 pm at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles. Weighing in at 7 lbs, 9 oz and 22 inches long, Ashby joins big brothers Carson, 8, and Tyler, 11, from Keith’s first marriage.

The name Ashby comes from Nancy’s paternal grandfather, while Grace references the church where her parents were married — it is also a name in Keith’s family.

Keith told Access,

We are beyond elated and look forward to appreciating today and every beautiful day to come with our new daughter.

Nancy’s press statement has a bit of humor, reading:

It is even more special given [that Ashby] is named after her great-grandfatherand was born on my father’s . She made for quite apresent to her new grandfather. Also, I love epidurals.

I’m so happy for Nancy, she seems very sweet and seemed so excited for her baby. Cute name and I love the baby was born on her grandpa’s birthday and has the name of her great grandfather, very sweet and special. I also love how nice Nancy always talks about her stepsons, can’t wait to see her baby. She was a very pretty pregnant woman too.
