Rachel McAdams, 39, welcomed a baby boy with boyfriend Jamie Linden! The stunning Mean Girls star was recently spotted walking with her screenwriter beau, while he carried a newborn in his arms!
News of her pregnancy broke just this February, and not much else has been revealed about the actress' journey to motherhood! As RadarOnline.com readers know, McAdams began dating Linden in 2016, and has yet to make her red-carpet debut with him. Why all the secrecy Rach?
Kylie Jenner, 20, shocked the nation when she finally shared the news of her pregnancy after months of staying out of the spotlight. In true Kylie Jenner form, the Lip Kit mogul posted an Instagram message this February 4, revealing she'd welcomed baby daughter Stormi Webster with boyfriend Travis Scott, 25, three days prior. Of course, the baby name reveal came much later, and took on an Internet presence of its own.
Anna Kournikova, 36, and longtime boyfriend Enrique Iglesias, 42, welcomed twins on December 16 in Miami. The duo — who's been together for over a decade — kept the pregnancy a complete secret, and only showed the tennis player's baby bump to close friends and family. After the reveal, the love bird took to social media to shared snaps of babies Nicholas and Lucy. "My sunshine," the new mom captioned a sweet snap of her holding one of her newborns.
Gilmore Girls star Alexis Bledel, 36, welcomed her first child, a son, with husband Vincent Kartheiser, 38, in 2016. The news only came out when the actress' former on-screen dad, Scott Patterson, accidentally spilled the beans during an interview with Glamour. If it hasn't been for him, the cos-stars-turned-lovers may have kept their pregnancy, birth and surprise 2014 wedding totally secret!
Carey Mulligan, 32, and husband Marcus Mumford, 31, welcomed their second child this September 2017 — but they still haven't revealed any details about the pregnancy, birth, or even their child's name! The actress addressed the topic on an interview with PEOPLE, only saying that it was all going "good." She and Mumford — who married in 2015 — also hared two-year-old daughter Evelyn.
Eva Mendes, 44, and hunky husband Ryan Gosling, 37, share daughters Esmeralda Amanda, 3, and Amanda Lee, 1 — but the private couple is rarely seen out with their little beauties in public! The gorgeous stars — who have been together since 2011 — welcomed their first daughter in 2014, though they kept the pregnancy a secret for almost seven months! With their second daughter, they hid the news almost until the day of her birth! Mendes and Gosling have previously spoken out about their family lie, saying they prefer to keep private things private, and spend time with their loved ones away from the spotlight.
