The Rvierdale star shares River with ex Michael Kopech. Speaking with PEOPLE last November, Morgan shared that her costars were eager to support her as a new mom, including former costar Mark Consuelos and his wife, Kelly Ripa.

"I talked to Kelly after I gave birth," said Morgan. "Mark, they were just excited for me, and gave me beautiful, beautiful baby clothes for River."

Morgan also shared that after she gave birth to River via cesarean section, Ripa was a great resource to talk to.

"Kelly, she's also had one and gave me some good advice for healing, and using silicone bandages, and that's what I use," Morgan said. "And she just told me, 'Yeah, up to a year you might still feel pain,' and all this stuff. So it was nice talking to somebody else who's been through it. She has given me some good advice of healing in that way."
