Fatherhood makes me really happy: Joseph Gordon-Levitt

New father Joseph Gordon-Levitt said he enjoys being a first time parent to his son.

The former child star, 34, and his wife Tasha McCauley secretly welcomed their first child together in August, reported Us magazine.

"It's wonderful and it makes me really happy. I am just so happy," he said.

Gordon-Levitt and the technology entrepreneur, 34, were tight-lipped too about their surprise nuptials in December 2014.
