Anne Hathaway has revealed that she and husband Adam Shulman know the sex of their third baby but have decided not to share it publicly. The actor also opened up about her children’s excitement and addressed online speculation surrounding her pregnancy.
Anne Hathaway is preparing to welcome another member into her family while continuing an exceptionally busy period in her career.
The Oscar-winning actor recently spoke about her third pregnancy during an appearance connected with the promotion of The End of Oak Street, offering a glimpse into how she and husband Adam Shulman are approaching the arrival of their new baby.
While the couple know the baby’s sex, Hathaway made it clear that they have chosen to keep that information within the family.
Anne Hathaway: ‘We know, but we’re not saying’
During her appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, guest host Anthony Anderson attempted to guess whether Hathaway was expecting a boy or a girl.
Anderson jokingly described himself as a “baby whisperer” before suggesting that the baby looked like a boy.
Hathaway smiled and responded:
“We know [but] we’re not saying.”
The audience reacted enthusiastically to her answer, prompting Hathaway to acknowledge their support.
She also explained that she sometimes feels uncomfortable when people ask about the baby’s sex and she declines to provide an answer.
For Hathaway, the decision appears to be less about creating mystery and more about maintaining a private boundary around her family.
Hathaway’s children are excited about the new baby
The upcoming arrival will be Hathaway and Shulman’s third child.
The couple are already parents to two sons, Jonathan and Jack.
Speaking about how her older children have responded to the pregnancy, Hathaway said they are extremely excited.
She described the experience as something the entire family is going through together, rather than simply an event happening to her.
Her comments offered a warm glimpse into the family’s preparations for welcoming the newest member.
Anne Hathaway responds to ‘fake bump’ speculation
Hathaway has also faced online speculation about her pregnancy appearance after making several public appearances with her baby bump.
At the premiere of The End of Oak Street, she attracted attention with a cropped flowing top and low-rise jeans that highlighted her pregnancy.
Online discussion subsequently included claims questioning whether her bump was genuine.
Hathaway responded directly on social media, writing:
“Fake hair, real bump.”
She added a message about enjoying the film’s promotional event and the heat affecting her outfit.
Her response appeared to make her position clear without turning the speculation into a prolonged public dispute.
A major year for Anne Hathaway
Hathaway’s pregnancy comes during an especially active period in her professional life.
The actor has several major projects around her latest release, including Mother Mary, The Devil Wears Prada 2 and The Odyssey.
She is also attached to the upcoming screen adaptation of Colleen Hoover’s novel Verity, adding another high-profile project to her schedule.
The combination of a major film slate and a growing family has made 2026 an important year for the actor both professionally and personally.
When does The End of Oak Street release in India?
The End of Oak Street is scheduled for theatrical release in India on August 14, 2026.
The film is expected to receive a wide release, with screenings planned in English as well as dubbed versions in Hindi, Tamil and Telugu. Reports have also indicated an IMAX release.
With Hathaway currently promoting the film, her pregnancy has naturally become part of the public conversation surrounding the project.
However, her latest comments suggest that some aspects of her family life will remain firmly off limits.
Hathaway chooses privacy while sharing the joy
Anne Hathaway has been open about her pregnancy while also drawing a clear line around information she does not want to make public.
She has shown her baby bump at public events, spoken about her children’s excitement and responded to speculation about her appearance.
At the same time, she and Shulman have chosen not to reveal whether their third child is a boy or a girl.
For now, Hathaway’s message is simple: they know, but they’re not saying.
And as the family prepares to welcome its newest member, that private decision appears to be one boundary the actor intends to maintain.
