Last August Robert has been (together with Robert Picardo) at the wonderful convention "Trek- Gate to your star. http://www.trekgatetoyourstar.com/ In his great panel he told the fans that he`s married and has a sweet daughter. The fans were impressed - Robert looked great and was very entertaining and always very nice to the fans.

Good for him! How long? How old is his girl? Is she his-his or is she his step-daughter? If his own, damn! Not bad for 57 (at the time, right?)! Eta: I've read she's 8 months old. Who finally snagged RB?
My word, he's gotten fat. I preferred him during his Chakotay days. Far more sexy... was an honor guest of my sexual fantasies.
Can't remember. I did a search and came across that, but nothing about the Mrs' or girl's name. Definitely no pic. I cannot imagine having a kid at my age (48)! Having one at 57! Brave or foolish. But here's wishing health and happiness to them! Eta: answers.com. Someone posted that RB mentioned in August that he was married and his girl was 8 months old. Posts on that site raise that he may have been married for a few years now. While this is obviously his personal life, I still like to hear news (I guess it could be considered gossip) about celebrities.
She's his own daughter, born in Germany in December 2010 and her name is Marlena. His wife is German. Gosh, really why not? If you had the opportunity to watch Robert the way he talked about his little daughter, you would have realized how much he adores her. He's such a proud and loving father! This is definitely no matter of age. Just my 2 cents...
Don't get me wrong! I'm very happy for him and his family. My comment about age was that it's not easy being a new parent, particularly so when, well, not so young anymore. I can't imagine doing it, and I'm "only" 48! And I would have LOVED to see him gush over her. It must've been awfully sweet.
Yeah, that really was an experience which I wouldn't have wanted to miss! It's funny, but Robert told us that most people say that his little girl looks like him (absolutely true!) and he doesn't agree however he admitted that she "acts like him"... whatever that means....
If "she acts like him" she must be a "fabulous actor" (Kate about RB). Fat? No way! Many fans who met him at TrekCon told us he was in a very good shape- cut the hair- give him a uniform and you get Chakotay. Look at the pics on this site. http://board.ostfc.de/thread.php?threadid=11716&threadview=0&hilight=&hilightuser=0&page=85 I would have loved to meet him there again.
I totally agree!! Robert was just looking great and healthy. However, what even counted much more (at least for me) was him being really stuffed with beastly fun and that he let all of us participate in his way of enjoying that event quite a lot. Thanks to him for that!!!
In at least one Syfy movie he's done since Voyager bowed, Robert looked pretty heavy. However, time can change all things... And kudos to spawning! It's said that actors often sacrifice starting family for their career (which is especially true of women), and if Robert had been doing so, I'm happy he's caught up to one of life's greater rewards. mark
I get strangely happy whenever Robert Picardo shows up on a show I watch. I still adore him! Such a snarky EMH.
As much as i make fun of this guy, I will say I'm happy for him, for his wife, and kid. I mean better late then never right . wait... how do u know what his kid looks like??
I love Bob Picardo too ^_^ although not in the creepy sort of way that i know some people do. he was in alot of stuff i watched as a kid and i never ever realized it until i was a teenager. I get to see him in February at my first ever Con. I really have no idea what people do at a convention except watch panels but... eh i guess i'll figure it out.
Oh..hey it worked!! Here is a link to a photo of Robert and his new family!! http://harrisonheldstarmedia.blogspot.com/2011_08_01_archive.html
His daughter looks like a darker-haired version of my niece in the pic! I wish them all health and happiness.
omg! the kid looks like i did when i was her age (i guess cause we're both the same breed) and his wife looks like Lily Potter(Evans)!!
You're Welcome! It's nice to see that he hasn't missed the opportunity to be a dad! His wife is pretty too! Hee...She kind of has a Janeway chin and hair color.
