Vanessa Kirby Reveals She Is Expecting a Baby With Partner Paul Rabil
On Saturday, Vanessa Kirby revealed she was expecting her first child at the Fantastic Four: First Steps photocall in Mexico, wearing a sleeveless shimmering green gown with a mock turtle neckline, crisscrossed with geometric patterns. The star posed with her hand gently resting on her abdomen, with a baby bump visible through the fabric.
She left her long blonde hair down and wore the gown with strappy sandal heels. She had on a glowing and bronzed makeup palette with luminous eyeshadow and a nude lip. In her ears, Kirby wore a pair of silver hoops and on her hands were several silver rings.
The unspoken announcement stirred up curiosity about Kirby's boyfriend and rumored fiancé, Paul Rabil. Here's everything to know about Rabil and his relationship with the Mission: Impossible star so far.
Paul Rabil is originally from Maryland, according to a 2010 profile in the New York Times, where he was raised by Allan and Jean Anne Rabil, who worked respectively at an aerospace company and as a Catholic school art teacher. They encouraged him early on to get involved in sports. While he was an accomplished athlete in general, his particular love of lacrosse skyrocketed him to a career in the Major League Lacrosse (MLL) and National Lacrosse League (NLL). In college, he played for John Hopkins University.
According to his LinkedIn page, he became a co-founder and president of Premier Lacrosse League. He's also a businessman, working as a partner for Rabil Ventures and founding Rabil Companies.
Rabil was married to Kelly Berger between 2014 and 2017 and went on to briefly date actress Eiza Gonzalez before being linked to Kirby.
According to The Daily Mail, they were first linked in October 2022 when they were seen walking around New York City. In November 2023, Rabil shared a tribute to Kirby with a carousel of pictures on Instagram, stating that they met in Des Moines. He wrote in the caption, 'from the very minute we first met in des moines, around the world and back, life is far better, more purposeful and more beautiful with you ❤️'
He recently made an appearance on her Instagram in April in a carousel of photos from the Four Seasons hotel, which she said was great for spending time with the 'people you most love.
In December 2024, it was reported that the couple had gotten engaged. However, they have not officially confirmed the news.
