Tom Hiddleston has been promoting The Life of Chuck in recent days, and he’s been doing all of his appearances solo. I had a brief moment last week where I wondered “hm, I wonder if he’s still with Zawe Ashton?” As it turns out, they’re absolutely still together. She just wasn’t traveling with him because she’s pregnant with their second kid! They welcomed their first child in the fall of 2022, and since then, we’ve seen them at various events like Wimbledon and the BAFTA tea party. They’ve definitely been quieter in the past year. Looks like Tom and Zawe were adjusting to parenthood and quietly plotting their next baby!
Ahead of her appearance on the red carpet for the closing of the SXSW festival in London, Zawe Ashton has a very special announcement to make, shared exclusively with Vogue: she and her husband Tom Hiddleston are expecting their second child.
Given the momentous nature of the news, choosing the right look for the occasion was paramount. To reveal her growing baby bump, the glowing British actor will take to the red carpet in a resplendent, sleeveless sky-blue silk crepe gown [from Emilia Wickstead] with tumbling frill details, worn beneath a svelte, puddling cape in matching fabric.
Announcing your second pregnancy to British Vogue alongside a write-up of your couture is very classy! I’m being serious – why confirm anything to People Magazine when you could announce your pregnancy with a special Vogue photoshoot? Rihanna would approve. Anyway, I’m very happy for Tom and Zawe. They’ve been together for what, six years or so? And they’ve been largely private – while they walk red carpets together, we don’t even know the name of their baby. We don’t even know if they ever got married (they got engaged in 2022). She’s 40 years old, 41 in July. Tom turned 44 in February. Congrats to them, and sympathy to JArthy.

The blue ensemble is very regal on her. They look quite happy, good for them.
She is way too cool for him
…and you can see it in that picture where he’s fake laughing with his mouth open and she’s just looking at him like……….?
Remember a conversation where someone was lamenting that movie stars always seemed to be dating other actors. Response was “Have you ever met an actor?” It’s def a peculiar kind of energy.
Best of all to them. He always seemed like he had good father energy and she seems like a very cool mom. Glad they found each other.
@Lisa Obviously she feels differently
Congrats to them, they seem like a lovely couple!
They are fricking cute. They always look so in love, I can’t believe it’s been 6 years!
Agreed, I wish I these two all the happiness. Tom seems incapable of hiding how thrilled he is that Zawe chose him.
How lovely for them, and so nice that Hiddles found his other half. Zawe gives the impression of being a very classy lady.
Drinks on the verandah to celebrate!!! Who’s in?
Why, me of course!
Even if it’s just for old times’ sake. Will LP be around?
So happy for Hiddles and Zawe to have found each other, congrats on baby № 2, whenever the arrival, wishing all the best for the 3 of them.
Of course, Nanea, welcome to the verandah. It would be lovely to see if some of the old crew are around, but everybody is welcome…as always. Those were such happy days before the Tangerine Terror came to town, and we could dream of drinks and snacks in the company of Hiddles and Co. Happy days.
I was confused at first reading the release , that stated they were married, when I didn’t remember that event . Congrats if that is true. Congrats to the new little one.
Poor Jane….she could have had it all…..
I’m pretty sure they got married in private. In recent write ups they’ve been referred to as husband and wife and in this vogue spread she’s got her wedding band on.
She does a lot through Vogue. She must have a close connection there. Not surprised, because she always looks great and has been supporting up and coming British designers for a long time.
yes, you look handsome, just don’t do that ‘look’……this look???
::deep sigh::
Aww! Congratulations! They are a cute couple.
*sigh* I can’t even be jealous since they are so lovely together. Happy to see them have a growing family.
He’s still my boyfriend in my head. My Hiddles!!!
Best wishes to the lovely couple. I welcome any and all smiles and I’m so happy they found one another. 🎉❤️
