Mike Myers & his wife welcomed a baby boy named Spike

This past March, I was stunned to read a story in the NY Post about Mike Myers having “secretly wed” a tea-shop-owning hipster chick named Kelly Tisdale. I was surprised because I had put stock in many blind items about Mike maybe/probably being gay, and perhaps that was the reason his first marriage failed? Many commenters corrected me, and it’s looking more and more like Mike is totally straight. He and Kelly married late last year after dating for several years. Kelly was pregnant when they announced their “secret” marriage, and Life & Style is confirming that Kelly gave birth to a boy!

Austin Powers star Mike Myers and wife, Kelly Tisdale, have welcomed a baby boy into the world, Life & Style has learned.

“The baby is named Spike and was born two weeks ago!” a source reveals to Life & Style.

This is the first child for the couple, who started dating in 2006 and married in a secret ceremony in New York last fall.

Mike has reportedly signed on to reprise his famous role as the International Man of Mystery in Austin Powers 4.

“Things are on track,” Mike said about the latest edition of the franchise.

Congrats to the duo on their newest addition!

SPIKE? It must be an English thing, right? Mike’s parents were English (transplanted to Canada). There are lots of dudes in England named Spike, and some of them are even heroes of English comedy, so perhaps it was a reference to that. Here in America, we reserve the name “Spike” for dogs. Anyway, I congratulate Mike and Kelly on their Virgo boy, and wish them luck with what I’m sure will be the kid’s long-time issues with OCD and neurosis (can I get a witness, fellow Virgos?). Congrats and mazel tov!
