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."

Ed Sheeran Releases New Song "Drive" from "F1" Movie Soundtrack: Stream It Now

Yara Sameh Ed Sheeran's latest song 'Drive' has arrived ahead of the opening of "F1: The Movie". The F1: The Album song, produced by John Mayer and Blake Slatkin, is now available on music streaming services. Mayer backs Sheeran on guitar on the anthemic new rock track, which also has Foo Fighters' Dave Grohl on drums, Pino Palladino on bass, Rami Jaffee on keyboards, and Slatkin on additional keyboards and drum programming to round out a notable ensemble of musicians. Sheeran previously shared that 'Drive' came together quickly in the studio with Mayer and Slatkin, recalling that 'the song fell out of us' after he'd seen some of F1. "Mayer just whacked an octave pedal on and went wild' to come up with the song's riff", he said. 'Movies are my hobby and probably the only thing other than sport that I get, like, starstruck to be part of. Not just directors or actors or whatever, but being a part of the journey of a movie is so exciting for me,' added Sheeran, who is set to release his next studio album, "Play", in September. "F1: The Album" will be released by Atlantic Records on June 27, when "F1: The Movie" theaters. Besides Sheeran, the "F1" soundtrack, led by Don Toliver feat. Doja Cat's 'Lose My Mind,' also boasts a lineup that includes Rosé, Chris Stapleton, Roddy Rich, Myke Towers, Tate McRae, Burna Boy, RAYE and more. Kevin Weaver, Atlantic's president of the West Coast and a two-time Grammy winner most recently for "Barbie: The Album", oversaw and produced "F1: The Album" with Atlantic executive vp/co-head of pop/rock A&R Brandon Davis and senior vp of A&R and marketing Joseph Khoury. read more New Tourism Route To Launch in Old Cairo Ahmed El Sakka-Led Play 'Sayidati Al Jamila' to Be Staged in KSA on Dec. 6 Mandy Moore Joins Season 2 of "Dr. Death" Anthology Series Don't Miss These Movies at 44th Cairo Int'l Film Festival Today Amr Diab to Headline KSA's MDLBEAST Soundstorm 2022 Festival Arts & Culture Mai Omar Stuns in Latest Instagram Photos Arts & Culture "The Flash" to End with Season 9 Arts & Culture Ministry of Culture Organizes four day Children's Film Festival Arts & Culture Canadian PM wishes Muslims Eid-al-Adha News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier Sports Former Al Zamalek Player Ibrahim Shika Passes away after Long Battle with Cancer Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Business Fear & Greed Index Plummets to Lowest Level Ever Recorded amid Global Trade War Arts & Culture Zahi Hawass: Claims of Columns Beneath the Pyramid of Khafre Are Lies News Flights suspended at Port Sudan Airport after Drone Attacks Videos & Features Video: Trending Lifestyle TikToker Valeria Márquez Shot Dead during Live Stream News Shell Unveils Cost-Cutting, LNG Growth Plan Technology 50-Year Soviet Spacecraft 'Kosmos 482' Crashes into Indian Ocean News 3 Killed in Shooting Attack in Thailand
