The actor spilled the 25-year-old’s pregnancy news in a March Instagram post, gushing that he couldn’t “wait to be a Grandad!”

Chase, 80, posted a sweet snap at the time as he and Emily’s partner each placed a hand on her baby bump.

The then-expectant star shared more shots on her own account, including a silly one where she and her dad “touch[ed] pregnant bellies.”

The Emmy winner shares Emily and her sisters — Cydney, 41, and Caley, 39 — with his third wife, Jayni Chase.

Although Chevy is widely reported to also be the father of a son named Bryan Perkins who was allegedly born in 1979, Emily clapped back at this belief in March.

“Beyond hilarious that we have a mysterious, fake half brother who is routinely reported as being part of the family,” she told her Instagram followers.

The actor wrote that he couldn’t “wait to be a Granddad.” em_chases/Instagram “Congrats to my daughter,” he concluded. em_chases/Instagram

“Who IS he?” Emily asked. “Where did this amazing rumor start? Why isn’t his last name Chase? ❤️ u imaginary Bryan.”

Chevy, notably, was married to Jacqueline Carlin at the time following his split from first wife Suzanne Chase.

The “Community” alum and Jayni tied the knot in 1982.

Emily often posts sweet family snaps via social media, including some in honor of Chevy’s 80th birthday in September 2023.

“Today the big Dab is 80, and what a f–kin’ life he’s led,” she gushed of her “BFF” at the time. “From driving NYC taxis to hosting the Oscars multiple times, he’s done more and lived harder than anyone I know.

“At his core he is deeply loving, sensitive, and a hilarious pain in the as,” she continued. “We wouldn’t have it any other way. Happy birthday to the bestest, mushiest, sweetest and most annoying Dab there is.”
