Tom Hiddleston welcomes second child with Zawe Ashton
Tom Hiddleston and Zawe Ashton have expanded their family, welcomed their second child together, the couple confirmed.
Hiddleston, 44, revealed the happy news in a recent GQ interviewdescribing the birth as a “beautiful, profound, earth-shattering, life-changing” experience.
The couple first met while co-starring in the 2019 play Betrayal and engaged in 2022.
They welcomed their first child in October 2022, although they are not sharing the name or gender, preferring to keep their personal lives private.

Zawe, 41, subtly hinted at the arrival last month with an Instagram post reflecting on postpartum recovery and her work to support children's causes, before Tom's interview made the news official.
“Today I chose to mark a milestone in postpartum recovery with a trip to one of the @littlevillagehq baby banks, dedicated to supporting families all year round,” she wrote in her caption.
“In my recovery, I have thought deeply about the children in our world who face the most devastating living conditions and those who work tirelessly to protect them. I have thought deeply about the ongoing war against children, a fight I am passionate about.”

The couple previously announced the pregnancy in June 2025, when Zawe debuted her baby bump at the SXSW London premiere of Tom's film The Life of Chuck.
They have continued to maintain a protective approach to their family's privacy, with neither the name nor the gender of the newest baby publicly revealed.
