After welcoming her third child in mid-June, Jenna Dewan is solidly in her postpartum era — and she's not afraid to showcase the harsh realities of life with a newborn.
The Step Up actress and her fiancé, Steve Kazee, welcomed their second child together on June 14, 2024. Their new daughter, Rhiannon Lee Kathryn Kazee, joins their son, Callum, 4, and Jenna's daughter, Everly, 11, whom she shared with ex-husband Channing Tatum.

On July 6, Jenna took to Instagram to share a carousel of photos summing up the realities of postpartum motherhood. The main image showed her smiling, bleary-eyed, with a messy bun while feeding her newborn with the help of a breastfeeding pillow. "Postpartum is truly a vibe," she declared in the caption.
Her photos depicted a mix of peaceful baby snuggles and exhausted newborn struggles. One image showed Jenna resting in bed (while looking decidedly tired, because newborns) with her baby girl sleeping peacefully on her chest. One shot included three dogs joining them in bed in addition to her 4-year-old son, who was dressed in a Spider-Man costume. Another candid image featured Jenna and Steve sitting together, with Steve working on a laptop and Jenna holding their sleepy daughter. Everly also appeared in the photo carousel, as Jenna shared a screenshot of her video call with her elder daughter.
In the comments, fans reacted to the relatable update.
One eagle-eyed Instagram user commented, "That mini bar changing table is a vibe!! ."
Someone else wrote: "My favorite time…. Congratulations. Enjoy every second and smell that baby’s breath all day. "
Of the last photo Jenna included, another Instagram user wrote, "I love that no matter who you are or what your status is in life- We all have the same Hospital Blanket ."
Yet another follower shared: "Love these pictures! Also you look so cute. I have 10 week old and I’m the same. Every picture I have is always me literally just chilling in our bed! Needed the food tray though … next time ."
