elisabeth_hasselbeck“View” co-host Elisabeth Hasselbeck has given birth to a baby boy, on Sunday, August 9, in New York City.

This is the third child for Elisabeth and her former NFL QB Tim Hasselbeck. According to the information given to the media by Tim, the baby has been named Isaiah and weighs 7 lb., 7 oz. Tim told gathered reporters that, “Elisabeth and Isaiah are doing great.”

Baby Isaiah joins the Hasselbeck clan as the third child; Elisabeth and Tim have two other children from their seven years of marriage, four year old daughter Grace and 21 month old son, Taylor Thomas. A post on The View website by Tim read, “.. we’re excited about the addition of another baby boy in to our family.”

The pregnancy report had been announced in January this year and the baby was supposedly due on the 11th of August. Isaiah Timothy Hasselbeck was delivered at 2:49 p.m..

However, there is a controversy already brewing at home, regarding the name chosen for the new baby. Hasselbeck’s critics are lashing at her baby boy being named Isaiah, who is a Catholic saint in the Old Testament and is said to have predicted the birth of Jesus in to the mortal world as the savior of mankind.

People who do not support Elizabeth’s staunch Catholic views are angry at the thought of her trying to shove her values down everyone’s throat forcefully. They are suggesting that if she is as dedicated a Catholic as she chooses to portray publicly then she should try and observe some Catholic values at home too, by staying back home and looking after her three young children, leaving behind her showbiz career.
