Double Celebrity Baby Joy
Anne Hathaway Reveals Third Pregnancy and Baby Bump on Instagram, Following Past Fertility Journey
Key Points
Hathaway’s Instagram reveal wasn’t just styled—ELLE describes her wearing an “ethereal” white two-piece (a flowing maxi skirt and a boho cropped wrap top with billowing sleeves) and embellished black heeled flip-flops, with the post captioned “Baby, I’m yours x” to Barbara Lewis’s “Baby I’m Yours.”
In the ELLE interview, Hathaway elaborated on how her sons may shift as the family grows—saying they’re currently in a “really fun zone,” then adding: “their feelings about us might change... So for the moment, we’re all just in it,” and concluding, “rather obnoxiously, I’m having a great time as everything else burns.”
Hathaway also reflected on marriage in the ELLE piece, saying it’s “such a big deal to share your life with someone” because it’s “fully yours to do anything you want with,” and describing the rarity of finding a partner who makes life feel like it “could lead to somewhere even better.”
Portman’s 45th-birthday carousel included an astronomical easter egg: she captioned the post that “in pic 12 you can see Venus and Jupiter almost touching,” and tied it to her photo from Paris (with additional birthday-week captions thanking Italy).
In her pregnancy announcement context (via JustJared quoting Harper’s Bazaar), Portman said in France “they consider full-term to be 41 weeks rather than 40,” which she joked gives her “an extra week to be pregnant this time around.”
Anne Hathaway announced on June 19, 2026 that she is expecting her third child with husband Adam Shulman. The reveal came via a styled Instagram video that drew over 800,000 likes, according to ABC News. The timing was no accident — the announcement landed on the same day her new film, Christopher Nolan's *The Odyssey*, opened in theaters.
Days earlier, Natalie Portman marked her 45th birthday on June 9 with an Instagram photo carousel showing her baby bump. HuffPost UK noted the post came about two months after Portman first confirmed her pregnancy in April. Both Oscar winners are now expecting their third child — each at 43 and 45 years old, respectively.
Hathaway's Reveal Was Carefully Styled and Timed
Hathaway's Instagram video was far from casual. ELLE described her wearing a white boho cropped wrap top, a flowing maxi skirt, and embellished black heeled flip-flops — an "ethereal" look. The post was captioned "Baby, I'm yours x" and set to Barbara Lewis's retro classic "Baby I'm Yours." Speculation about her pregnancy had already been building during the *Odyssey* press tour, where fans noticed her flowy wardrobe choices.
The film's release adds another layer. *The Odyssey* is a high-budget Nolan epic in which Hathaway stars alongside Zendaya and Lupita Nyong'o. Nolan's previous film, *Oppenheimer*, crossed $1 billion at the box office, according to Forbes. Hathaway's pregnancy news drew widespread attention on the film's opening day — softening some of the separate controversy around its casting.
Hathaway Opens Up About Family, Marriage, and Joy
In an interview with ELLE, Hathaway spoke honestly about her growing family. Her sons Jonathan, 10, and Jack, 6, are currently in a "really fun zone," she said. But she added: "their feelings about us might change." She ended with a line that turned heads: "rather obnoxiously, I'm having a great time as everything else burns."
Hathaway also reflected on her marriage to Shulman, now 14 years long. She said it's "such a big deal to share your life with someone" because your life is "fully yours to do anything you want with." She described the rarity of finding a partner who makes life feel like it "could lead to somewhere even better." The road to this pregnancy was not easy — she has previously spoken about fertility struggles and a 2015 miscarriage, per ELLE.
Portman Celebrates 45 With a Baby Bump and Venus
Portman's birthday post was its own kind of announcement. She shared a photo dump from trips to Italy and Paris, with her baby bump visible throughout. She added an astronomical detail for sharp-eyed followers: "in pic 12 you can see Venus and Jupiter almost touching," she wrote, according to SheFinds. The celestial detail fit the "miraculous" tone she has used to describe this pregnancy.
Portman first confirmed the pregnancy in April via *Harper's Bazaar*, saying she views it as "a privilege and a miracle." She credited her father — a fertility doctor — for shaping that perspective. The baby will be her first with French music producer Tanguy Destable, 46. Her two older children, Aleph, 15, and Amalia, 9, are from her marriage to Benjamin Millepied, whose divorce was finalized in 2024, per People.
Both Stars Normalize Pregnancy and Motherhood at 40-Plus
Hathaway is 43. Portman turned 45 on June 9. Both are having their third child. Portman even joked about French pregnancy standards — telling *Harper's Bazaar* that France considers full-term to be 41 weeks rather than 40, giving her "an extra week to be pregnant this time around." The comment reflected her full embrace of Parisian life since relocating after her 2024 divorce.
Parenting analysts say high-profile announcements from women over 40 help shift public assumptions about when motherhood is possible or appropriate, per the live research briefing. When two respected, widely covered actresses document these milestones openly — through styled videos, birthday carousels, and candid interviews — it reaches audiences who might not otherwise question the cultural timeline for family-building.
