The Blue Bloods season 13 premiere was a blast. Jamie in the hospital, a cozy family dinner, Erin and Jack “in limbo,” and Maria Baez (played by Marisa Ramirez) entering motherhood—it was all exciting. But did you know that Marisa—in real life—is already a mom?
So, who is the father? Find out more about her partner as this article continues.
Marisa Ramirez Baby’s Father
Marisa Ramirez was married to Nathan Lavezoli from 2002 to 2011. But he is not the father of the child. In fact, the two do not have any children together.
The Blue Bloods star welcomed her daughter, Violet Rae, back on May 29, 2016. “She’s here!! Little Violet Rae was born Sunday, May 29!! She’s so happy and healthy, we love her so much!!!” Marisa tweeted at the time.
But while she may have been thrilled to be blessed with a child, her pregnancy was a total surprise! “Some mornings, I wake up and forget I’m pregnant! It’s like fate—a happy surprise,” she added. Plus, she didn’t know she was having a girl at first. However, by the time of her flower-filled baby shower in New York City in April—which was attended by co-stars Bridget Moynahan and Abigail Hawk—the truth was revealed.
Looking back on her pregnancy, Marisa said she felt “warm and happy” knowing that the Blue Bloods family was helping her transition into this new chapter of her life. Her co-star, Donnie Wahlberg, even “did a little dance of joy” when she learned the exciting news.
Now (as of 2022), Marisa’s daughter is 6 years old. On her 6th birthday, Marisa threw a party and then took to her IG to write, “I can’t believe we have a 6 year old! Happy birthday to the goofiest, sweetest, most adorable monster who is my world. We had the best time yesterday.”

Marisa Ramirez Net Worth
Marisa Ramirez boasts a net worth of $3 million as of 2022, all thanks to her acting career.
But the actress first began her career as a model and host. The Los Angeles native attended an all-girls private school in East LA, and when she was just 13, a Polaroid photo of her landed in the hands of a Los Angeles modeling agency.
This wasn’t her first time being recruited, though. In fact, when she was just five years old, her mother took her to an audition but she “didn’t want to get involved” in the industry. Since then, she’s become one of those teens you always hear about, discovered at the mall when an eagle-eyed recruiter handed her a business card.
So, after the age of 13, Marisa started working as a photo model, then as an advertising actress, and finally, she traveled across continents (Asia, Australia, Africa and Europe) to work.
In 1995, after graduating from Ramona Convent High School in Alhambra, California, Marisa became a host for MTV — hosting the television show Senseless Acts of Video.
Of course, she then went into acting and landed her first big role as “Gia Campbell” on General Hospital. Soon after, she also played “Carmen Mesta,” a public relations consultant at Jabot Cosmetics, on The Young and the Restless for over 70 episodes from 2006-2007.
Making her mark in the television industry, Marisa moved to Primetime, often cast as a police officer. To date, she has guest-starred on shows such as Supernatural, Castle, The Suite Life on Deck, CSI: NY, Bones, and Rizzoli and Isles.
When Marisa isn’t on set, she’s enjoying her hobby: kickboxing. In fact, she’s been teaching kickboxing for six years, after having enjoyed the sport for 12 or 15 years before that. That’s right, she started kickboxing “just for fitness, just for fun.” But after becoming a teacher, “there was a certain quality” that she discovered that she “never really had in my life.”
But that’s not entirely true because she’s also the captain of the training team. “Okay, so there’s always that bossy quality, the strength, the power, the kind of woman in power, maybe I just like yelling at people, maybe I’m good at it,” she admitted.
