It’s a good time to be Kayla Wallace. Along with this week’s season 2 premiere of her hit Paramount+ series Landman, which also stars Billy Bob Thornton and Demi Moore, Wallace also revealed that she and husband Kevin McGarry are expecting their first baby.
“We can’t wait to meet you, baby♥️ Premiering 2026,” Wallace, 32, and McGarry, 40, wrote in a joint caption on Instagram alongside a photo of the pair, who met on the set of Hallmark Channel’s When Calls the Heart, standing in front of Christmas trees and highlighting Wallace’s baby bump.
In Landman, Wallace plays cutthroat attorney Rebecca Falcone. The show returns on Sunday, Nov. 16. “I’m still pinching myself,” Wallace told PEOPLE in February of being part of the Taylor Sheridan co-created drama. “It feels like a dream that I get to work with the wonderful cast and creatives that we have.”
Here, Wallace takes PEOPLE along for the ride in New York City as she celebrates this exciting new season with an exclusive photo diary.

Wallace was all smiles in a chic black leather dress as she kicked off “a full day of press for Landman season 2.”
The actress shared her pregnancy news with her costars and colleagues a few days prior. “I’ve been back home in Canada since we wrapped, so I’ve been in hiding essentially,” she told PEOPLE at the Landman premiere. “So my reveal was I put on a tight dress last night and walked into the lobby at the hotel, and people were like, ‘What?!’ They’ve been so supportive. It’s been wonderful.”
