Jennifer Lawrence Is Pregnant With Baby No. 2 With Her Husband Cooke Maroney

Jennifer Lawrence is pregnant with baby No. 2! Representatives for the Hunger Games actress recently confirmed that she is expecting her second child with husband Cooke Maroney. And in recent photos, fans have already seen a peek at her baby bump.

As a refresher, Jennifer, 34, married Cooke, 40, an art gallery director, in October 2019 after they started dating in spring 2018. The couple welcomed their first child, a son they named Cy, in February 2022. Since then, Jennifer and Cooke have prioritized their privacy when it comes to their child. But they decided to confirm her second pregnancy amid speculation she was expecting.

On October 20, 2024, Vogue revealed that Jennifer Lawrence is pregnant with her second child.

“Congratulations are in order for Jennifer Lawrence! The Oscar-winning actor will be welcoming her second child with art gallerist husband Cooke Maroney,” Vogue captioned a since-deleted post, per People. In a separate Vogue article, the publication noted that representatives for Jennifer confirmed the pregnancy.

The actress confirmed the news one day after photos showed her with what looked like a baby bump. On Saturday, October 19, Jennifer was photographed in Los Angeles, Page Six reported. She and Cooke were reportedly walking together to dinner when paparazzi snapped the images. Although it wasn’t very prominent, Jennifer sported what appeared to be a small baby bump during the outing — likely prompting outlets to reach out for confirmation of the pregnancy.

 In November 2021, Jennifer shared her hopes of protecting her child’s privacy as much as possible during an interview with Vanity Fair.

“If I was at a dinner party, and somebody was like, ‘Oh, my God, you’re expecting a baby,’ I wouldn’t be like, ‘God, I can’t talk about that. Get away from me, you psycho!'” she told the magazine. “But every instinct in my body wants to protect their privacy for the rest of their lives, as much as I can.”

She later opened up about experiencing mom guilt. During Variety’s Actors on Actors episode with Jennifer and Viola Davis in December 2022, the new mom made a relatable confession about motherhood.

“Every day of being a mom, I feel awful. I feel guilty,” she told Viola. “I’m playing with [my son] and I’m like, ‘Is this what he wants to be doing? Should we be outside? We’re outside. What if he’s cold? What if he’s going to get sick? Should we be inside? Is this enough? Is this developing your brain enough?'”

Additionally, Jennifer said motherhood has changed her perspective when considering new projects. During a June 2023 sit-down with Interview magazine, Jennifer dished on how becoming a mother shifted her priorities as a Hollywood actor.

“There’s no squeezing when you have a baby,” Lawrence explained. “It definitely helps weed out projects: ‘Yes. No. Yes. No. Yes. No. Is this worth being away from my child for half the day?’ “
