Anne Hathaway has shared the news fans did not see coming: baby number three is officially on the way.
The 43-year-old Oscar-winning actress announced that she is expecting her third child with husband Adam Shulman through a sweet Instagram video on Friday, June 19. In the clip, Hathaway revealed her baby bump while “Baby I’m Yours” by Barbara Lewis played in the background.
Hathaway captioned the post with a simple message, writing, “x Baby, I’m yours x.” The video quickly spread across social media as fans celebrated the actress’ growing family.
The announcement marks another joyful chapter for Hathaway and Shulman, who have been married since 2012. The couple are already parents to two sons, Jonathan, 10, and Jack, 6.
For many fans, the video looked like a beautiful celebrity pregnancy reveal. But for those who remember Hathaway’s past comments, the moment carried a much deeper meaning.
Hathaway has previously spoken honestly about fertility struggles and the emotional pain that can come with trying to have a child. When she announced her second pregnancy in 2019, she made a point of acknowledging people going through infertility and pregnancy challenges.
At the time, her message stood out because she did not present pregnancy as something simple or easy for everyone. Instead, she used her announcement to show compassion for people quietly carrying the same kind of pain she once knew.
Hathaway later revealed that she had experienced a miscarriage in 2015. She also spoke about the difficulty of conceiving her two sons, describing that period of her life as painful and isolating.
That history is why this third pregnancy announcement is being seen as more than just happy news. For Hathaway, it is another milestone after years of private struggle, loss, and hope.
The actress has also been careful about protecting her family from the spotlight. Even though she is one of Hollywood’s most recognizable stars, she has kept much of her children’s lives private and allowed them to grow away from constant public attention.
Her marriage to Shulman has also remained relatively low-key compared with many celebrity relationships. The two met in 2008, married in Big Sur in 2012, and have built a family life that Hathaway rarely turns into a public performance.
That made the new video feel even more personal. Hathaway did not need a long caption or dramatic announcement; the smile, the music, and the reveal were enough.
The timing also comes during a busy professional year for the actress. Vogue noted that Hathaway has several major projects connected to 2026, including work tied to The Devil Wears Prada sequel, Mother Mary, Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey, The End of Oak Street, and the film adaptation of Verity.
Still, the pregnancy announcement quickly became the moment fans focused on most. Messages of congratulations poured in as people celebrated both the baby news and the strength behind Hathaway’s journey.
For Anne Hathaway, baby number three is not just another Hollywood headline. It is a reminder that behind the glamorous photos and sweet announcement videos, some of the happiest milestones arrive after the hardest private battles.
