Zawe Ashton Refers to Tom Hiddleston as Her Husband in Second Pregnancy Reveal
Yara Sameh
Zawe Ashton has revealed more than one surprise when she announced her second pregnancy over the weekend.
Just after walking the red carpet at the closing of SXSW London on Saturday, June 7, the actress, 40, shared the news with
Vogue
that she and Tom Hiddleston are expecting a second child together. The outlet referred to Hiddleston,44, as her husband in the pregnancy announcement, seeming to confirm that they are married.
Ashton joined Hiddleston at the festival for the premiere of his new movie, "The Life of Chuck". The pair held hands as they posed for photos on the carpet, and Ashton showcased her baby bump in an Emilia Wickstead sky-blue silk crepe gown detailed with ruffles and topped with a matching cape.
Ashton and Hiddleston first met while co-starring in a 2019 revival of Harold Pinter's play "Betrayal in London," followed by a run on Broadway in New York City, and got engaged in March 2022.
At the time, a source close to the production of the play said that Ashton and Hiddleston always had "lovely" chemistry together while working on the project.
"They were very private publicly, but behind the scenes, you could just see a lovely chemistry," the source recalled. "There were twinkles in both of their eyes."
After more than two years of dating, the couple seemingly confirmed their romance in September 2021 when they attended the Tony Awards together, marking their first public outing as a couple.
They first sparked engagement rumors in March 2022 after the BAFTAs, when Ashton was spotted wearing a diamond ring on that finger in a photo shared on Instagram by AJ Odudu. PEOPLE confirmed the engagement shortly.
In June of that same year, Ashton revealed that she was pregnant and expecting her first baby with Hiddleston. Similar to her latest pregnancy announcement, the actress made the big reveal on the red carpet while attending a New York City screening of her film "Mr. Malcolm's List". Months later, in October, the baby had arrived.
'Tom and Zawe are loving being new parents and are filled with joy,' a source told Us Weekly at the time.
Though the pair has kept their relationship under wraps, Hiddleston gave Ashton a sweet shout-out on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon in November 2023. While chatting about the second season of his Marvel series "Loki", he took a moment to gush about Ashton's recent role in another MCU project, "The Marvels".
'My other half is in The Marvels, and I'm very proud of her," he said. "So there you go. That's out this weekend."
