Not a lot of people realize that Paige O’Brien, Josh Peck’s wife, is just as seasoned as he is when it comes to being in the entertainment industry. While Peck is used to being onscreen, O’Brien is known for an entirely different reason instead.
Josh Peck is known as a comedic icon to an entire generation as the star of two Nickelodeon sitcoms from the late 1990s to the early 2000s. He first rose to fame on “The Amanda Show” alongside Amanda Bynes before landing the titular character’s role on “Drake & Josh” from 2004 to 2007.
While Peck starred in several other shows and films since then, his work on “Drake & Josh” remains his most recognized work. More recently, he shifted from working on shows and movies to working on a comedic lifestyle YouTube channel, Shua Vlogs, with his wife, Paige O’Brien.
Who Is Paige O’Brien, Josh Peck’s Wife?
While Peck is known for his work as an actor, O’Brien works as a cinematographer and editor. In the past few years, she’s been noted for working on films like “Tell Me a Story” and “Black Wolf.”
Not much is known about her recent work, except that she once helped Peck run his YouTube channel, which has 3.59 million followers. Instead of work, her social media page boasts her beautiful life with her husband and children.
When Did Josh Peck and Paige O’Brien Get Married?
In 2017, the “Drake & Josh” star married his then-longtime girlfriend in a private ceremony in Malibu, California. The pair were joined by their family, friends, and a few celebrity guests, including John Stamos, who starred alongside Peck on “Grandfathered.”
Peck went under fire at the time for reportedly snubbing his co-star Drake Bell from the wedding. Bell once caused a stir online after calling Peck out for not inviting him to the wedding.
Following the ordeal, fans started yelling at Peck on the street, asking him why Bell wasn’t invited. In the end, the pair put the issue to rest and reunited at the VMAs, where they made it clear that they were brothers.
How Many Kids Does Josh Peck Have with Paige O’Brien?
In 2018, a year after their wedding, the couple welcomed their first child. They named their bundle of joy Max Milo Peck and posted a photo of him wrapped in a swaddle at the hospital.
The snap garnered a total of 1.69 million likes to date, cementing Peck’s status as a well-loved celebrity. They couldn’t help but express their congratulations to the couple, with some noting how they “feel old” after knowing Peck finally had a child of his own.
Four years after the birth of their firstborn, Peck and O’Brien revealed that they were having a second baby in June 2022. By October, they shared a black and white photo of the newest addition to their family.
In the photos, their son Max is seen kissing his new baby brother on the forehead, while another shows Max sitting beside his sleeping brother. Peck’s photo caption revealed that they named their son “Shai Miller Peck.”
Peck is enjoying being a father of two, once admitting that he used to get fatherhood advice from his co-star John Stamos. In 2018, Stamos welcomed his son Billy in April and taught Peck a thing or two about what to expect. Gushing about how great Stamos is as a dad, Peck once said:
“He’s done this incredible, beautiful transition into being a dad, and I know that he wanted to have a kid for so long. So to watch him sort of flourish in that way has been a joy.”
As for what John Stamos taught him about fatherhood? It was simply to do his best – whether changing diapers or taking on the night shift.
