Charles Melton makes surprising revelation post baby arrival

Charles Melton has shared a candid glimpse into his early days of fatherhood, admitting he is struggling with sleep following the arrival of his first child, but not for the expected reasons.

The Riverdale and May December star recently appeared on Live with Kelly and Mark, where he spoke about adjusting to life after welcoming a baby girl with partner Camille Summers-Valli in March 2026. 

While many assume sleepless nights come with caring for a newborn, Melton revealed that his daughter is, in fact, a good sleeper.

Instead, the actor admitted that his own habits are to blame, as per People. 

Moreover, he shared that he often stays up late watching Japanese anime or scrolling through basketball content, including old NBA clips, as a way to unwind after long days.

Melton joked that while people sympathise with him for being a tired new parent, the reality is far less dramatic. 

“Little do they know,” he said, referring to his late-night routines, which sometimes keep him awake until the early hours.

As per the outlet, the couple first announced their pregnancy in January before confirming the birth of their daughter through a heartfelt Instagram post in March, sharing intimate moments from their journey into parenthood.
