welcomed

ACTRESS Hilary Swank is pregnant with her third child more than three years after welcoming her twins.

Swank, 52, announced her pregnancy on social media on Wednesday, sharing a creative video of glowing stick figures with a tiny baby attached to the belly of one of their bodies.

The video displayed three glowing stick figures, which appear to represent Swank’s husband Philip Schneider and their twins Aya and Ohm, dancing to Ain’t Seen Nothing Yet by Bachman-Turner Overdrive.

Moments later, a fourth member joins the party, however, this stick figure has a baby attached, which suggests Swank’s pregnancy.

Swank captioned the post, “A lot of people have been asking what project I’m doing next, this one releases in December,” hinting that she is due in the winter.

Swank and Schneider welcomed their twins in April 2023, nearly five years after tying the knot at an outdoor ceremony at the Santa Lucia Preserve in Carmel, California, in August 2018.

The Oscar-winning actress announced her first pregnancy during an interview on Good Morning America in October 2022.

Swank gushed at the thought of becoming a mom, saying, “This is something that I’ve been wanting for a long time and my next thing is I’m gonna be a mom.”

She then teased, “And not just of one but of two.

“It’s such a blessing. It’s a total miracle. It’s unbelievable.”

Swank made the decision to freeze her eggs at 37, not yet sure whether she wished to be pregnant someday.

She then used these eggs a decade later, and opened up to Women’s Health magazine about how it felt to become a mother at the age of 48.

The star shared: “I would have had kids earlier. I’m not saying I actively waited until 47. But that was a magical time in my life, when it all culminated. It was the right time for myriad reasons.

“I’m a very different parent than I would’ve been, even in my early 40s, I’m much more patient. I’m much more understanding. I am much more, I think, interested in a different way than I would’ve been.

“I’m really interested in their brains. I am fascinated about what makes them tick. And I have my career that’s already established, so I’m not divided. I’m able to really sink in and be present with them and be a hands-on parent.”

Swank also graced the cover of Women’s Health magazine to flaunt her post-baby body in a series of sexy bathing suits.

The then 50-year old ooze confidence in the stunning snaps, flashing her enviable figure.

Her stomach looked super flat and toned despite carrying twins, and her smile beamed from underneath a blue sun visor.

One fan posted: “She looks like Rashad’s old girlfriend from ATL, she was in one of Neo’s videos and Keyshia Cole… in a Dru Hill video… I think that’s her.

“You sho right!! She is so freaking pretty. Congrats to them.”

Fast and Furious star Tyrese said: “Praise God!!!!! I love you both…. You guys are amazing already great parents and now it’s new favor and new blessings!!!!!! Congratulations on the new angel….. Jon sir you are applying a lot of pressure for a brother like me!!!!!!!!!! Yikes!!!! Lol.”

John and Tae largely keep their relationship out of the spotlight, and he recently explained why they opted for a small ceremony for their wedding nearly two years ago.

He told the Guardian: “We both like the idea of celebrating something established, rather than celebrating the entry.”

However, he’s confident the pair will have a huge celebration in the future and said it will be so big they’ll “have to shut Nigeria down!”

Both of John’s parents are Nigerian and he often speaks of his pride in his heritage. He wore traditional Nigerian dress to the Star Wars: Rise of Skywalker premiere in 2019 and introduced co-star Harrison Ford to a Nigerian restaurant in South London while filming.

At the time of the interview, John revealed Tae was pregnant and spoke glowingly of his domestic situation.

He said: “We got a baby cooking. My life is completely, completely fulfilled in terms of family. It’s been so nice with the timing.”

Tae is already mum to son Brandon Jennings Jr from her relationship with ex-NBA star Brandon Jennings.
