Surprise, surprise! Jennifer Lawrence is back in the maternity game, and we’re here for it! That’s right, Katniss Everdeen is officially expecting her second little tribute. A rep for the 34-year-old Oscar-winning actress confirmed to Vogue that she and her husband, art-world heartthrob Cooke Maroney, are about to welcome a new member to the Mockingjay fam. May the parenting odds be ever in their favor.
The Baby Bump Reveal – A Masterclass in Subtlety
Jennifer, being the casual icon she is, let the world in on the secret the old-fashioned way: with a low-key dinner outing in Los Angeles. Sporting a sneaky little baby bump, she kept it chill, probably hoping the paparazzi wouldn’t catch on. (Spoiler: They did. These guys could spot a bump from outer space.)
Big Brother Cy is Ready to Step Up
J-Law and her 40-year-old art gallery-running hubby already share a son, Cy, who is now two. Yup, the toddler’s reign as an only child is about to end, but don’t worry, Cy – those art genes are strong in the Maroney household, so there will be plenty of finger paints and macaroni art projects to go around.
The couple tied the knot in October 2019 at the ultra-fancy Belcourt mansion in Newport, Rhode Island. (Basically, they got married in a place so grand it probably comes with its own butler named Jeeves.)
Meanwhile, Jennifer vs. The Paparazzi: Round 2
Since becoming a mom, Jennifer says her relationship with the paparazzi has “evolved.” Translation: She’s probably a pro at dodging them now, armed with the reflexes of someone who’s spent years outrunning Capitol enemies on-screen. Sneaking out for a quick Target run without being snapped? That’s the real Hunger Games.
And Now, A Side of Activism with That Baby Announcement
But Jennifer’s not just resting on her Hollywood laurels. Oh no – when she’s not busy growing humans or dodging photographers, she’s changing the world. Her latest documentary, Zurawski v Texas, co-produced with none other than Hillary Clinton, dives deep into Texas’s draconian anti-abortion laws. Catch it soon in New York, LA, Austin, or San Antonio – because if Jennifer’s going to be pregnant, she’s making sure other women get to choose whether they want to be or not.
Then, just when you thought she couldn’t get any more impressive, she teams up with Malala Yousafzai (yes, that Malala) for another documentary called Bread & Roses. This one takes us inside the lives of women in Kabul. It drops on Apple TV+ this November, so fire up those subscriptions and settle in for some heavy but important viewing.
Wrap It Up: Jennifer Lawrence 2.0 – Now With Extra Glow
Congratulations to Jennifer and Cooke on their growing family! With baby #2 on the way, a documentary world tour, and a paparazzi-challenging skill set that rivals a ninja, Lawrence is officially the queen of multitasking. Let’s just hope she teaches her new baby how to give an award-winning acceptance speech by the time they hit kindergarten.
Until then, we’ll be here, munching popcorn and cheering on the world’s most relatable movie star – one baby bump sighting at a time.
