Hathaway's Family Grows
Actress Anne Hathaway and Husband Adam Shulman Await Third Child
Anne Hathaway, 43, is pregnant with her third child. The Oscar-winning actress confirmed the news on June 19, 2026, in a video posted to Instagram, which drew more than 850,000 likes in under an hour, according to ABC News.
In the clip, Hathaway walks into frame wearing a white top and floor-length skirt, then removes her hands from her midsection to reveal a baby bump before smiling and running off-camera. Her spokesperson told the Associated Press, "I think the video is pretty obvious."
A Baby Bump Spotted Weeks Before the Big Reveal
The announcement did not come entirely by surprise. In April 2026, photographers spotted Hathaway on a family holiday in St. Tropez, France, with husband Adam Shulman and their two sons. Photos showed a visible bump, but Hathaway made no official statement at the time, according to Head Topics.
Hathaway and Shulman, 45, have been married since 2012. They already have two sons: Jonathan, 10, and Jack, 6. The new baby will be their third child together, ABC News confirmed.
Hathaway's Long, Honest Road to Motherhood
This pregnancy carries extra meaning given what Hathaway has shared publicly about her fertility journey. She has said the path to both of her previous pregnancies "was not a straight line." In 2024, she revealed she suffered a miscarriage in 2015 while performing in an off-Broadway play, describing the emotional toll as "impossible to keep bottled up."
Her openness has built a deep connection with fans. Many are responding to this announcement as especially meaningful, given her past honesty about loss and "conception hell" — her own term for the struggle to conceive, according to El Mundo.
Third Pregnancy Lands at the Peak of Her Career
The timing puts Hathaway at the center of two major headlines at once. *The Devil Wears Prada 2* opened in May 2026 and is performing strongly at the global box office. Her films have earned more than $6.8 billion to date, and analysts say her market value is at an all-time high, according to Head Topics.
Some industry observers note that the announcement landed right in the middle of the *Prada 2* and *Mother Mary* press cycles — a move that keeps her front and center in the cultural conversation. Others simply see it as good news arriving during a great year. Either way, #AnneHathaway trended number one on X globally within 20 minutes of her post, according to ABC News.
What a Third Baby Means for Her Upcoming Film Slate
Hathaway has several big projects lined up for 2027, including *The Odyssey*, *The End of Oak Street*, and *Verity*. Industry insiders are watching to see if production schedules will shift. *The Odyssey* in particular — a physically demanding Greco-Roman epic — may require stunt doubles or filming adjustments, according to El Mundo.
Hathaway is known for working through her pregnancies. She has said motherhood made her more "true to her word" in the professional choices she makes. For now, her press tour for *Mother Mary* is expected to continue, with maternity fashion likely keeping her in the spotlight, according to Head Topics.
