Joaquin Phoenix and Rooney Mara are on the brink of becoming parents again! Rooney spilled the beans herself, stepping out on the Berlinale International Film Festival’s red carpet in Berlin, Germany. There, amidst the glitz and glamour, she showcased her growing baby bump. It was her subtle, yet unmistakable way of announcing that she and the “Napoleon” star are expecting their second child.
Rooney, glowing in a strapless black Givenchy gown, cradled her bump for the world to see. Yet, beyond her radiant appearance, she chose not to delve further into her pregnancy news. This upcoming arrival marks the second child for Rooney and Joaquin, a duo that first became parents back in 2020. That September, they shared the joyous news of their first child, a son they named River, in a touching tribute to Joaquin’s late brother.
River Phoenix, a talent gone too soon, left an indelible mark with his role in “Stand By Me.” His untimely death in 1993 from a drug overdose at just 23 remains a poignant chapter in the Phoenix family’s history. Meanwhile, on Instagram, snapshots and heartfelt congratulations flood in for the expectant couple, who are notoriously private about their personal lives.
Their love story began on the set of “Her” in 2013, though it wasn’t until their paths crossed again on “Mary Magdalene” in 2018 that sparks truly flew. By 2019, rumors of their engagement began to swirl, though a wedding has yet to happen. As they gear up for their family to grow by one more, we send our warmest wishes to Joaquin and Rooney.
Oh, and just a bit about me – Kate Fann. I’m nestled in East Tennessee with my husband Casey and our two boys, Quinn and Noah. When I’m not weaving stories or scrolling through Instagram, you can find me indulging in the finer things in life: savoring exquisite wines, experimenting with makeup, baking delectable treats, or exploring the majestic Smoky Mountains.
