by Rajesh Khadka,

Actress and Comedian Ellie Kemper and her husband Michael Koman has already made a decision about their 1-year old child.

Kemper was raised Catholic and Koman was raised Koman so after mutual understanding the couple has decided to raise their son James as a Catholic. 

Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt actress appeared on The Late Show on Wednesday Night where she opened up with Stephen Colbert that she has decided to raise her first child as Catholic not Jewish and even revealed that she is not sure if she has made a wrong decision.

Kemper said:

He got baptized sort of late, like in May, he was 10 months old. I was actually very nervous when the priest was holding him because I'm not sure priests are known for their, like, grit. [At 10-months-old] they're strong, and they're emotional, and they have opinions.

In reply, Colbert jokingly said that the priest might have "got rid of the devil" from the little James which Kemper didn't believe.

Kemper even said that she has been very happy after the birth of her child James but she is not happy with the fact that she is moving backward from adulthood.
