Anne Hathaway has shared her excitement after unexpectedly becoming pregnant at the age of 43. The actress announced the news in June with an Instagram video revealing her baby bump, writing, “Baby, I’m yours.” Hathaway and her husband, Adam Shulman, are already parents to two sons, Jonathan and Jack, and she recently admitted they never imagined they would be expecting another child.

During the New York premiere of The Odyssey, Hathaway explained that as people get older, the chances of conceiving naturally often become lower. She said that she and her husband chose to let life unfold without expecting another pregnancy. When they learned they were expecting, they felt an overwhelming sense of joy, while also recognizing that many people facing fertility challenges never experience that moment.

Hathaway has previously spoken openly about the difficulties she faced on her path to motherhood. She revealed that she experienced a miscarriage in 2015 while performing in the stage production Grounded. When announcing her second pregnancy in 2019, she also acknowledged the struggles of infertility, sharing that her own journey had not been simple or straightforward.

Looking back on those experiences, Hathaway said she hopes her story reminds others that they are not alone. She understands how painful it can be to hope for a child while questioning why it hasn’t happened, and she believes that speaking honestly about both heartbreak and happiness can provide comfort, encouragement, and hope to others facing similar challenges.
