The actress — who currently stars as Maggie Bell on Dick Wolf's CBS drama FBI — confirmed that she and Oakley had wed with a sweet Instagram post shortly after, when she shared two photos from their magical celebration.

"Happy New Year! Love Tom, Missy & Charly," the Stick It alum captioned the New Year's Day 2019 post.

As her due date approached, Peregrym had her last day on set for FBI's second season in early February.

"I'm feeling all the things," she wrote on Instagram. "Sad to leave the team early, relieved to be off my feet and able to fully rest before the babe comes, scared of the future .. but mostly, grateful."

"It's no joke working while growing a human, and I would not have been able to do it without our thoughtful crew," Peregrym added. "Thank you for always having my back, making sure I had grilled cheese, and being so excited about us starting a family."
