On Friday, Anne Hathaway took to Instagram with a simple but joyful video: the actor, 43, walked into frame in a flowing white skirt and cropped top, then removed her arms to reveal a baby bump. The clip, set to Barbara Lewis's 'Baby I'm Yours', quickly racked up half a million likes in the first half-hour. Hathaway is expecting her third child with husband Adam Shulman.
Hathaway is best known for films such as 'The Devil Wears Prada' and 'Les Misérables'. She and Shulman, an actor, already have two sons: Jonathan Rosebanks Shulman, born in March 2016, and Jack Shulman, born in November 2019. The announcement comes just weeks after she attended premieres for 'The Devil Wears Prada 2', which was released on 1 May, and 'Mother Mary', released on 17 April. Upcoming releases include 'The Odyssey' (17 July), 'The End of Oak Street' (14 August), and 'Verity' (2 October).
“Anne Hathaway announced her third pregnancy on Instagram; here's what we know.”
Hathaway has previously spoken about the difficulties of her path to motherhood. In March 2024, she told Vanity Fair that she suffered a miscarriage in 2015 while performing in a play where she had to give birth on stage every night. She said she 'pretended everything was fine' but confided in friends backstage. 'It's really hard to want something so much and to wonder if you're doing something wrong,' she said at the time.
For UK readers, Hathaway is a familiar Hollywood figure, and her pregnancy news has been widely covered by British media. Her decision to share the announcement on Instagram reflects a common trend among celebrities to control their own narrative, though the personal context of her previous miscarriage adds a layer of emotional resonance. Fans in the UK have followed her career from 'The Princess Diaries' era to her recent roles, and her openness about fertility struggles may resonate with many.
