"Last year, I asked for a baby girl, and I got it, which is exhausting," he said during his opening monologue, per Page Six. "So this year, I wish for Ambien!"

Details about the exact time of the daughter's birth or her name remain a mystery. However, the little bundle of joy joins her big brother, whose name is also unknown.

News of Tucker's second pregnancy broke in February when photos of the couple went viral. In the images, Tucker was seen rocking a visible baby bump while the pair ran errands. The daughter of politician Henry Tucker donned a puffy brown jacket, which she left unzipped, over a grey sweater and black slacks.

It also didn't help that Tucker and Driver were also caught carrying a baby reclined bather among their shopping bags.

Driver and his wife have remained super lowkey despite the box office successes attached to his name. In 2016 when they welcomed their son, fans only got to hear of it after his sister-in-law posted photos on Instagram of a pregnant Tucker and a joint baby shower while referring to themselves as "new moms."

The "Star Wars" actor has also remained super quiet about his personal life, speaking about his son only a handful of times. Such was the case in March when Driver shared how his son feels about his movies.

During an appearance on "Late Night With Seth Meyers," the 40-year-old who starred as Commander Mills in the dinosaur-fighting action thriller "65," confessed that he took up the role because of his son's love for dinosaurs. However, the little one doesn't care about it because he hates movies.

"I tell him, like, 'Oh, we're going to do movies sometimes.' He's like, 'Oh, that's cool. I hate movies,'" Driver recalled. "He hates them! I finally showed him 'Mary Poppins' as the first movie, and he's like, 'Eh, it was okay.'" He continued, "We're like, 'Do you want to watch anything else?' He's like, 'No, I'm not interested."

Explaining how his son inspired his decision to star in a Sci-Fi film, Driver stated, "It was like dinosaurs and laser guns, and he's into dinosaurs, so I was like, 'I'm in.' Then we went, and he kind of knew everything. The guy was introducing [the dinosaurs] like, 'Oh, this might be a little scary. Don't be scared.' He's like, 'No. Gallimimus. Eoraptor.' He was naming everything. He was really into it."

Unfortunately, Driver's sacrifice and dedication weren't strong in persuading his mini-me to accompany him to the cinemas to watch the movie. "He doesn't want to see the movie because it's too scary. So I basically made this thing for him to watch that he has no interest in watching," the actor declared.
