"In response to various rumors that are incorrect, I have been married for almost 3 years, and we are blessed to be the parents of a wonderful son," Bell wrote on Twitter in Spanish in a statement translated to English.
"Thank you very much to all my fans around the world for your good wishes," he added in the tweet.

Bell's statement comes after he was recently photographed with Janet Von Schmeling, according to People magazine. The couple – both wearing bands on their ring fingers – was spotted pushing a stroller around Disneyland.
Last month, Bell pleaded guilty to one count of disseminating matter harmful to juveniles and one count of attempted endangering children.
