Who’s the father of Ginny’s baby? The truth behind the Ginny and Georgia mystery

You've been binge-watching. We've all been there. You get to the end of a chaotic episode of Ginny & Georgia on Netflix and your brain just starts spinning. It’s a lot. Between the murders, the private investigators, and the high school drama, there is one specific question that keeps popping up in group chats and Reddit threads: who’s the father of Ginny’s baby?

Actually, there’s a bit of a mix-up here.

If you came here looking for a shock twist about Ginny Miller being pregnant, let’s clear the air immediately. Ginny Miller is not pregnant. At least, not yet. As of the end of Season 2, Ginny (played by Antonia Gentry) hasn't had a baby. The person people are usually actually thinking of—or the mystery that drives the entire plot of the show—is Ginny’s mother, Georgia Miller. Or, occasionally, people are getting Ginny confused with other characters in the "Newbury" universe.

Confusion happens. The show is literally named after two people.

The real story: Who is Ginny’s father?

Let’s get the facts straight. The "father" in question for Ginny herself is Zion Miller.

Zion is the cool, nomadic, motorcycle-riding photographer who Georgia fell in love with when she was just a teenager. He’s played by the incredibly charismatic Brianne Howey's co-star, Nathan Mitchell. Zion is 100% Ginny’s biological father. There is no "who is the father" mystery surrounding Ginny's birth in the way there might be in a soap opera.

Georgia met Zion when she was roughly 15 years old. She was a runaway, escaping a horrific home life, and Zion’s family was the first glimpse of stability she ever had. However, Georgia being Georgia, she didn't think she fit into their "perfect" world. She took Ginny and ran.

Wait. Maybe you're thinking of the other baby?

Austin’s Father: The real villain

If you're asking about the father of Georgia’s second child, Austin, that’s where things get dark. Austin’s father is Gil Timmins.

Gil is a piece of work. He shows up in Season 2 and absolutely wrecks the vibe. He’s abusive, manipulative, and he’s the reason Georgia had to frame him for embezzlement just to get him out of her life. While Zion represents the "what could have been" for Georgia, Gil represents the trauma she is constantly trying to outrun.

Why everyone is searching for Ginny's baby daddy

So, why the confusion? Why is everyone googling who’s the father of Ginny’s baby?

It’s likely because of the Season 1 finale and several pregnancy scares throughout the series. Remember when Ginny and Marcus first hooked up? It was messy. It was impulsive. Ginny was terrified. She actually went to a clinic to get the morning-after pill. That scene was a huge moment for her character, showing her trying to be more responsible than her mother was at that age.

There’s also the fact that Ginny & Georgia is often compared to Gilmore Girls. In Gilmore Girls, there is a massive "who is the father" cliffhanger involving Rory Gilmore in the revival. Fans often conflate these two shows in their minds because the "teen mom" dynamic is so similar.

Then there is the fan fiction.

The internet is a wild place. If you spend five minutes on Wattpad or certain corners of TikTok, you’ll see "Alternative Universe" (AU) stories where Ginny does get pregnant. These stories often debate whether the father would be Marcus Baker or Hunter Chen. But if we are sticking to the Netflix canon? No baby. No pregnancy.

The Marcus and Hunter dynamic

To understand why the question exists, we have to look at the guys.

Marcus Baker. He’s the "bad boy" next door. He climbs through windows. He has deep, dark hair and a brooding soul. He’s the one Ginny actually loves, but their relationship is a rollercoaster of depression, miscommunication, and intense chemistry.

Hunter Chen. He’s the overachiever. He’s the guy who does the "happy Friday" tap dances. He’s sweet, but he doesn't truly "see" Ginny the way Marcus does.

If Ginny were to have a baby in Season 3 or 4, the biological father would almost certainly be Marcus. The show has heavily leaned into their physical connection. However, given that the show focuses so much on the cycle of teen pregnancy and Georgia's desperation to break that cycle for her daughter, having Ginny get pregnant would be a massive, perhaps even soul-crushing, narrative shift.

Is there a secret baby?

Sometimes people get confused by Georgia’s past. Georgia had Ginny at 15. She had Austin much later. Throughout the show, we see flashbacks to Georgia’s various "husbands" and "boyfriends."

  1. Anthony Greene: Her first husband. She poisoned his drink.
  2. Kenny Blitten: Her husband who died in the pilot episode (thanks to some wolfsbane in a smoothie).
  3. Paul Randolph: The Mayor. They get married at the end of Season 2, but he is definitely not the father of her existing children.

There aren't any hidden children lurking in the shadows. The Miller family is a tight, albeit chaotic, trio.

What to expect in Season 3

Netflix has officially renewed the show for Season 3 and Season 4. Sarah Lampert, the show's creator, has been pretty vocal about wanting to explore the fallout of Georgia’s arrest. At the end of Season 2, Georgia is literally taken away in handcuffs at her own wedding for the murder of Tom Fuller.

This leaves Ginny and Austin in a precarious position.

If the showrunners decide to add a pregnancy storyline for Ginny in the upcoming seasons, it would likely be used to mirror Georgia's past. It would be a "history repeating itself" trope. But honestly? Ginny is currently dealing with self-harm recovery, her mother’s arrest, and a brutal breakup with Marcus. Adding a baby to that mix would be absolute narrative overload.

The "Morning After" pill context

Let’s talk about that Season 1 clinic visit again. It was a pivotal moment in teen TV.

Ginny went to the pharmacy with her "MANG" friends (Max, Abby, Norah). It was awkward. It was real. It highlighted the fear of becoming like your parents. Because she took the pill, the "who is the father" question was effectively shut down before it even started.

If you see articles or videos claiming Ginny is pregnant, they are usually "clickbait" or referring to fan theories. Some people have even speculated that Max or Abby might end up with a pregnancy storyline, but there is zero evidence in the script for that so far.

How to stay updated

If you're looking for the actual moment a baby enters the picture, you'll have to wait for the Season 3 premiere. Production was delayed due to the strikes in Hollywood, but filming is back on track.

Expect more Zion. Expect more Gil (unfortunately). But don't expect a nursery in the Miller household just yet.

The core of Ginny & Georgia isn't about a "who dunnit" baby mystery; it’s about a "who dunnit" murder mystery. Georgia is a serial killer. Ginny is a traumatized teenager trying to find her own identity. That’s plenty of drama without adding a third generation of Millers to the mix.

Key Takeaways for Fans

  • Ginny is not a mother. She is a high school student.
  • Zion Miller is Ginny's father.
  • Gil Timmins is Austin's father.
  • Marcus Baker is Ginny's primary love interest, but they are currently on a "break" while Marcus deals with his mental health.
  • Season 3 will likely focus on Georgia's legal battles rather than a new baby.

The best way to keep the facts straight is to re-watch Season 2, specifically the episodes where Gil returns. It paints a very clear picture of the family tree and why Georgia is so protective of her kids. She doesn't want them repeating her mistakes. She wants Ginny to have the life she never got—a life that doesn't involve being a teen mom on the run.

Keep an eye on official Netflix social media accounts for the Season 3 trailer. That's where we'll get our first real hint if the writers are planning any major "family additions." Until then, any "father" talk is just noise.


Next Steps for You:

To get the full context of the Miller family history, go back and watch Season 1, Episode 8, which dives deep into Georgia's pregnancy with Ginny. You should also check out the Season 2 finale again to see the exact moment the family dynamic shifts, as this will be the starting point for everything that happens next in Newbury. If you're following the actors, Antonia Gentry often posts behind-the-scenes updates on Instagram that give clues about the filming timeline.
