It’s basically a known fact that there is absolutely nothing in this world cuter than a newborn babe (except maybe Timothée Chalamet with a moustache. Precious!). Which is why we get so extremely stoked when our fave celebs make a pregnancy announcement. Oh, the possibilities: the cute Insta posts, the matching Halloween costumes to come, the potential to be out-flexed by a literal baby who owns a Chanel purse. But mostly, we’re just super excited to have another reason to celebrate a healthy new bb! Whether it’s the Kardashian-Jenners growing their empire (seriously Kylie, when’s Stormi 2.0 coming?) or one of our faves welcoming their first bundle of joy (looking at you, Chloë), we’re betting 2020 is going to a year filled with new celeb babies. Here are all the pregnant celebrities 2020.
Ashlee Simpson Ross and Evan Ross
Congrats are in order for the Ross family! Ashlee Simpson Ross and her husband Evan Ross announced that they’re expecting their second child together. “We are pregnant and we are excited to share it with everyone. Baby #3” Simpson wrote in a May 1 announcement to Instagram, which featured two photos of the couple holding up a positive pregnancy test.
The couple have a four-year old daughter, Jagger Snow, and co-parent an 11-year-old son from Simpson’s previous marriage to Pete Wentz.
The couple also revealed that they’re supporting March of Dimes‘ Mom and Baby COVID-19 Intervention and Support Fund. The organization is currently partnering with healthcare providers to support mom’s and babies during the pandemic.
Gigi Hadid and Zayn Malik
It looks like Zayn Malik is heading in a new direction—fatherhood! The singer is expecting a baby with on-again, off-again GF, Gigi Hadid and we are 100% screaming with excitement. On April 28, TMZ reported that the famous model—who just celebrated her 25th birthday in quarantine with Malik—is 20 weeks along. Also reported? That her recent birthday celebrations were also a low-key gender reveal party! After much speculation (and some suspicious Insta posts from Hadid), Hadid confirmed the news on an April 30 episode of The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon; which means we can offish start calling Malik #Zaddy.
Anderson Cooper
Congrats are in order for journalist Anderson Cooper. The correspondent revealed on April 30 that he’s now a dad, announcing the birth of his son Wyatt Cooper both on-air on CNN and on social media. “I want to share with you some joyful news,” Cooper wrote on Instagram, alongside a carousel of photos of himself and his son. “On Monday, I became a father. This is Wyatt Cooper. He is three days old.” Cooper revealed that his new addition is named after the journalist’s own father, who passed away when he was 10 years old.
Anderson revealed that Wyatt was born via surrogate, writing: “As a gay kid, I never thought it would be possible to have a child, and I’m grateful for all those who have paved the way, and for the doctors and nurses and everyone involved in my son’s birth. Most of all, I am grateful to a remarkable surrogate who carried Wyatt, and watched over him lovingly, and tenderly, and gave birth to him.”
Congrats to the new dad and welcome baby Wyatt!
Lea Michele and Zandy Reich
It’s a Glee baby! According to People, actor Lea Michele is expecting her first child with entrepreneur hubby, Zandy Reich. The couple, who celebrated their one-year wedding anniversary in March, have been linked since 2017.

Aaron Carter and his girlfriend Melanie Martin, who he has been dating since January, are going to be parents. In an April 21 Instagram Live video, Carter announced that the couple are expecting their first child together. “Obviously I have a baby on the way,” the singer told fans after showing what appeared to be a positive pregnancy test. “I’m going to be a busy father for sure.”
Later, he added: “This is the official announcement, we’re pregnant.”
Shortly after his announcement, Carter shared a selfie of himself to Instagram, captioning the photo: “Dad bod.”

I wanted to share this with you. Here we go again.”
The exciting news comes four months after the couple revealed that the mom of four had suffered a miscarriage in November 2019. Hilaria had previously suffered a miscarriage in April 2019.
Wishing mama and baby a healthy pregnancy!
Leighton Meester and Adam Brody
It’s another tween drama baby! Meester and Brody, former stars of Gossip Girl and The O.C. respectively, are expecting their second baby together. Photos obtained by the Daily Mail show the couple on a March 31 walk with their daughter in Los Angeles, with Meester sporting a *very* visible baby bump. Love to see it!
The couple—who have been married since 2014—are already parents to 4-year-old daughter Arlo, who was born in 2015.
Kevin and Eniko Hart
Congrats are in order for the Harts! On March 24, Eniko Hart—wife of actor and comedian Kevin Hart—took to Instagram to announce that the couple is expecting their second child together. Posing in a beautiful black and white photo, the mama-to-be showed off her growing bump. “in the midst of all of this we’re counting our blessings and couldn’t be more grateful,” Eniko captioned the photo. “soon to be a family of 6!”
The couple are parents to 2-year-old son Kenzo Kash. Hart also shares daughter Heaven, 15, and son Hendrix, 12, with ex-wife Torrei Hart.
Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom
Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom are having a baby! On March 4, Perry revealed that she and the actor are expecting in a pretty cool way—by revealing her bump in the new music video for her latest single “Never Worn White.” The video, which is gorgeous, shows Perry cradling her bump in an ethereal white dress as she sings about getting a relationship right. This will be Perry’s first child and the second for Bloom, who shares nine-year-old son Flynn with ex-wife Miranda Kerr.
Melissa Benoist and Chris Wood
Supergirl star Melissa Benoist has a little superbaby on the way. The former Glee actor took to Instagram to announce the news, posting a pic of herself and hubby of six months Chris Wood holding a little shirt. “”A non-canine child is coming to our family very soon!!!” she wrote. “@christophrwood has always been an old dad by nature but now he’s going to be a real one!”
Anyone else notice the blue clothing theme in this pic? Considering gender reveal parties have been going way too far, we’re thinking this is a more level-headed way to say the baby will be a boy.
Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner
Babies having babies!! According to multiple sources (and Just Jared), newlyweds Sophie Turner and Joe Jonas are expecting a new Jonas baby! Per the website, one source said of recent pregnancy rumours: “The couple is keeping things very hush hush but their friends and family are super excited for them.” The couple tied the knot at a May 2019 wedding in Las Vegas. They had a second ceremony in France in June.
In the words of the mama-to-be herself: “And that’s the tea.”
Penn Badgley and Domino Kirke
Gossip Girl and You actor Penn Badgley and his wife Domino Kirke (who happens to be a birth attendant) are expecting their first baby together! 33-year-old Badgley and 36-year-old Kirke got married back in 2017, and the road to parenthood has apparently been a tough one for the couple. Kirke wrote in an Instagram caption: “After two miscarriages in a row we were ready to call it. I stopped trusting my body and started to accept the fact that I was done.” *SO* happy for them now!
Ciara and Russell Wilson
Ciara and Russell Wilson are adding to their super cute fam! On January 30, the singer and pro football player announced that they’re expecting baby #3 (their second together)! “Number 3,” Ciara wrote alongside an Instagram photo of herself posing in a bathing suit in Turks and Caicos, baby bump on full display.

Talk about twinning! Twin sisters Nikki and Brie Bella—former WWE wrestlers and stars of the reality show Total Bellas—have revealed to People that they’re both expecting. The best part? They’re due a week and a half apart! “Wait, twins being pregnant at the same time?” Brie, who is married to pro wrestler Daniel Bryan and shares a two-year-old daughter with him, told the mag. “People are going to think that’s a joke. We both are shocked. People are going to think we planned it, but you can’t really plan pregnancy!”
Nikki, who is engaged to her Dancing with the Stars partner Artem Chigvintsev, revealed that her pregnancy was a complete surprise. “It took even me a good week to come to terms with like, ‘Oh my gosh, I’m pregnant.’ I’m not ready for it,” she said.
Jesse Tyler Ferguson and Justin Mikita
A Modern Family baby! On January 22, actor Jesse Tyler Ferguson shared the news that he and his husband are expecting their first child together. Making the joyful announcement while appearing on The Late, Late Show with James Corden, Ferguson—talking about finally reaching adulthood in your forties alongside fellow guest Charlie Hunnam—said: “Actually, this is something I haven’t even mentioned to anyone, if we could just keep it between the three of us and you all, but I’m actually expecting a baby in July with my husband.”
Corden—and the crowd–were obviously thrilled. While Ferguson didn’t reveal any further details, he did confirm that the couple are having a “human.”
Ferguson and Mikita have been married since July 2013.
We can’t wait for July!
Grimes
Singer Grimes has always marched to the beat of her own drum, so should we really be surprised that her pregnancy announcement was a little offbeat…or just straight up confusing? On January 7, the Canadian singer posted a nude image of herself to Instagram with the shadow of a fetus projected onto her belly.
Grime’s first post, which showed her nipples, was taken down by Instagram but in the now-deleted caption, the musician wrote: “I thought about censoring them for a hot minute haha (this may get taken down anyway) but the photo is so much less feral without the nipples. Plus being knocked up is a very feral & war-like state of being. Might as well be what it is. Plus most of my friends told me not to post them so then I was afflicted w reverse psychology. Interrogated my shame and decided it was sum weird internalized self hated to feel uncomfortable about my body. Hope ur having a nice day!”

Fans were quick to interpret the post as a pregnancy announcement, congratulating the singer and (assumed) father of the bb, Elon Musk. Later the same day, Grimes took to Twitter to share two photos of her IRL bump, and it’s seriously gorge.

Chloë Sevigny
Actor Chloë Sevigny is reportedly preggo with her first child, and she has the seriously adorbs baby bump to prove it. On January 7, TMZ shared photos of Sevigny walking in New York alongside her beau and (probable) baby daddy, Sinisa Mackovic, bump on full display.
The pair looked SUPER loved up, and we are totally smitten with this growing little fam!
Mackovic and 45-year-old Sevigny have been a couple since at least August 2019. The American Horror Story actor is known for being the literal epitome of chicness all day, everyday, so we can only imagine that her maternity style is going to be seriously gorge. Just imagine all the cool, artsy Instagram photos!
Sevigny has yet to confirm or personally announce her pregnancy; so we’ll just sit here and wait with bated breath for what’s bound to be a seriously cool pregnancy announcement.
