Vogue referred to Hiddleston as Ashton’s “husband” in the June 7 pregnancy announcement story. PEOPLE previously confirmed in March 2022 that the pair had gotten engaged.
PEOPLE reached out to Hiddleston and Ashton’s representatives for comment about the pregnancy news and the potential marriage news on June 7, but did not immediately hear back.
The couple, who met while costarring in the 2019 play Betrayal, welcomed their first baby in October 2022. In June of that year, Ashton debuted her baby bump at a special screening of her movie Mr. Malcolm’s List.
At the time, the actress made her way down the red carpet wearing a bead-embellished tulle gown by Sabina Bilenko Couture, per Vogue, who gave a behind-the-scenes look at her glam session before the event.

In March 2022, the Essex Serpent actor made a rare comment about their relationship in an interview with the Los Angeles Times.
“I’m very happy,” Hiddleston said at the time, just months after they had made their red carpet debut as a couple at the 2021 Tony Awards.
