Anne Hathaway's Kids Are "the Most Sacred Part" of Her Life: Meet Jonathan and Jack

Yahoo22-05-2025

Anne Hathaway and Adam Schulman welcomed their first son, Jonathan Rosebanks, in 2016.
The couple's second son, Jack, arrived in 2019.
The She Came to Me actress calls her two kids "the most sacred part of my life by a long shot."Since becoming a mom in 2016, Anne Hathaway has lovingly raised her two sons, Jonathan and Jack, away from the spotlight. The Princess Diaries actress shares her kids with her husband, Adam Schulman, whom she married in 2012. The pair have a love-at-first-sight love story: after meeting in 2008 at Palm Spring Film Festival, Hathaway said, 'I knew from the second I met him that he was the love of my life."
Their wedding was an intimate family affair: after being spotted in Brooklyn, New York with a ring on that finger, the Eileen actress and her beau tied the knot at a private home in Big Sur, California, on September 29, 2012. Hathaway wore a custom Valentino gown, a vintage-inspired headband, and a simple veil. Roughly 150 guests were in attendance, very few of whom were A-list celebrities.
Though neither parent has spoken much about their children, Schulman did gush about his wife in a rare, candid interview with People. "Every aspect [of parenthood] is amazing," he told the publication, adding that Hathaway "amazes" him as a mother. "Every day makes me appreciate her more."
The couple are raising their family in a Southern California chalet-style home previously owned by Yves Saint Laurent and Wes Anderson, according to Homes & Gardens. Away from the bright lights of Hollywood, Hathaway says she's able to preserve the boundaries between her personal and professional endeavors.
"It's something I feel is not just essential for my health—I'm on a team, it's my family, and it's not just about me," she told PORTER. "My family has needs, and one of the needs of children is that they need to be able to define their own lives."
Now that she's a mom of two, Hathaway says, she feels complete. "I didn't feel fully landed and fully here until I was a mom,' she told WSJ Magazine. 'It's not like I was lacking integrity, but it made me want to be completely, on every level, true to my word."
Ahead, here's everything you should know about Hathaway and Schulman's two sons, Jonathan and Jack, and the couple's joint parenting venture that the actress says makes "all the difference."
Hathaway and Schulman's eldest son Jonathan was born on March 24, 2016. His middle name is an homage to two relatives: Hathaway's grandmother, whose name was Roseline, and Schulman's mother, whose maiden name is Rosebanks.
Hathaway later revealed that prior to Jonathan's birth, she experienced a miscarriage while starring in the 2015 off-Broadway play Grounded. "It's really hard to want something so much and to wonder if you're doing something wrong," she later said in an interview with Vanity Fair.
Hathaway and Schulman's second son arrived in November 2019. The actress announced her pregnancy with a post on Instagram, where she opened up about her struggles with infertility. "For everyone going through infertility and conception hell, please know it was not a straight line to either of my pregnancies," she wrote. "Sending you extra love."
The Ocean's 8 actress later explained her decision to open up on Instagram during an interview with Vanity Fair. "Given the pain I felt while trying to get pregnant, it would've felt disingenuous to post something all the way happy when I know the story is much more nuanced than that for everyone," she said.
The couple waited 11 months before revealing Jack's name. The Mother's Instinct actress ultimately let it slip during an appearance on Live With Kelly & Ryan. "No coping, just love," she told then-host Ryan Seacrest of how Jonathan was adjusting to life as an older brother. "Now Jack's big enough to wrestle with, and that's brought a new element to their relationship that's really cute."
Since welcoming Jack, Hathaway says becoming a mother-of-two has "re-prioritized everything," adding, "It's actually made me a bit choosier because something really has to be so excellent to spend time away from them because they're so precious to me."
She continued, "They're the most sacred part of my life by a long shot. And then when I do accept something, it puts greater pressure on me to make it worth the time that I've spent away from them."

Machine Gun Kelly makes rare red-carpet appearance with daughter Casie: See the photos

Machine Gun Kelly may be an award-winning musician, but fatherhood remains the top gig. The Grammy-nominated rap-rocker (real name: Colson Baker) stepped out with his eldest daughter, Casie Baker, for a rare red-carpet appearance at the 2025 Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards on June 21.

The "My Ex's Best Friend" singer welcomed a daughter, Saga Blade Fox-Baker, in March with ex-fianceé Megan Fox. "Megan is in the no sleep club, for sure," Kelly, 35, told People. "Women are in the rougher trenches of the newborn process, but my specialty is music and laughs and whatever I can do to make her smile and kind of get introduced to the world with love." Earlier this week, Kelly revealed the baby's name in a June 17 Instagram post, which included an adorable video of the singer serenading the infant with a ukulele. Casie gushed that becoming an older sister has been "fun," adding, "It's really just so cute. I love her so much." 10 bingeable memoirs to check out: Celebrities tell all about aging, marriage and Beyoncé Saga marks Kelly and Fox's first child after calling off their January 2022 engagement. In a March 2024 interview on the "Call Her Daddy" podcast, Fox declined to go into detail about their current relationship status. "I think that what I've learned from being in this relationship is that it's not for public consumption, so I think, as of now, I don't have a comment on the status of the relationship, per se," she said. "What I can say is: That is what I refer to as being my 'twin soul,' and there will always be a tether to him no matter what."

'When I played the character of Sharpay — I think it was probably what made her so funny — was that I truly thought [Sharpay] was the popular girl in school. I thought Sharpay was popular, and I played it like she was popular,' Tisdale recalls. 'And [director] Kenny Ortega enhanced that. He really made me feel like I was popular. But what's so funny is that she's not the popular girl. She's the drama queen. And my husband's like, 'That's what's so funny about how you played it. You really thought you were popular,' ' she continues. The actress also shared how it feels 'so cool' to see the character find new life on social media and in meme culture.

"It's just, you're like, 'Dang, man.' I can't believe out of everything that I auditioned for [...] I got this animation [series] that has lasted this long. Or I was always trying to get a Disney movie, and never got the movie. And then, I got High School Musical. " 'Out of all the ones, I get that. This is pretty awesome,' she says. High School Musical became one of the most successful Disney Channel Original movies of all time. It generated two popular sequel films, the third of which was released in theaters in 2008 and earned more than $250 million worldwide at the box office, per Variety.
