Tom Hiddleston and fiancee Zawe Ashton are expecting a baby

There’s a baby on the way for Zawe Ashton and Tom Hiddleston!

Ashton confirmed the news to Vogue as she attended the premiere of her upcoming period drama, “Mr. Malcolm’s List,” in New York City on Wednesday night.

The English actor’s baby bump was visible as she walked the red carpet in a flowing, tulle gown with beaded embellishments.

She looked stunning in the custom Sabina Bilenko dress, which had a Regency-esque empire waistline and ethereal capes extending down from the off-the-shoulder sleeves.

The “Velvet Buzzsaw” star wore her hair in a half-up, half-down style and accessorized with sparkling earrings and a black manicure.

This will be the first child for Ashton, 37, and Hiddleston, 41, who got engaged in March, according to the Los Angeles Times.

The couple met in 2019 when they co-starred in the revival of Harold Pinter’s 1978 play “Betrayal” in London.

Ashton will reportedly join her fiancé in the Marvel Universe when she portrays an as-of-yet-unnamed villain in next year’s “Captain Marvel” sequel.

She and Hiddleston tend to keep their private lives under the radar, and they have not revealed the due date or any other details about the pregnancy.

While this is the first time Ashton has confirmed she’s expecting, the actor been rocking flowing dresses that flatter her baby bump since the spring.
