Chicago Med Reveals Dr. Dean Archer as Father of Dr. Hannah Asher's Baby in Season 11 Premiere

The season 11 premiere of "Chicago Med" reveals that Dr. Dean Archer is the father of Dr. Hannah Asher's baby, resolving the lingering question from season 10. Although Asher initially informs Archer of her pregnancy and plans to keep the baby, she does not expect much involvement from him, but Archer reassures her of his commitment to co-parenting despite their decision not to pursue a romantic relationship. The show also explores the emotional impact on Asher's ex-boyfriend, Dr. Mitch Ripley, who mistakenly believed he was the father and confronts Asher before moving forward in a new relationship with Sadie. The storyline includes Asher keeping her pregnancy secret from colleagues, leading to rumors and misunderstandings at Gaffney Chicago Medical Center. Archer, who is significantly older, is portrayed as initially overwhelmed by impending fatherhood but ultimately supportive. The season balances these personal dramas with other medical and character developments, including coping with new diagnoses and staff changes.
