How to Get Away with Murder Wiki

"Hi, Christopher. I'm your godmother. You just don't know it yet because Laurel hasn't gotten off her ass to ask me."
Annalise Keating to baby Christopher.[src]

Christopher Castillo is the biological child of Laurel Castillo and Wes Gibbins. Even though it was originally believed that the baby's father is Wes Gibbins, it was later revealed that Laurel slept with Wes and Frank at the time that her son was conceived. After completing a paternity test, it was evidently clear that the baby's father is Wes. The baby seems to have been conceived in the episode "Is Someone Really Dead?".

Laurel revealed to Annalise in the episode "It's for the Greater Good" that the baby is a boy. In the episode "Live. Live. Live.", Laurel gives birth to him prematurely, and he is ultimately saved by Annalise while the paramedics arrive. It's confirmed in "He's Dead" that Wes is the father, not Frank.

In the series finale "Stay", Christopher was first seen as a toddler with his mother Laurel in the courthouse for his godmother Annalise's trial and then as adult, after attending Annalise's funeral with his mother, he become a criminal law professor at Middleton University over the introductory class teaching Criminal Law 100, or as his godmother and mentor Annalise preferred to call the class "How To Get Away With Murder".
