Surprise news from Hollywood: Alicia Vikander and Michael Fassbender have quietly welcomed their second child together! The couple, known for keeping their personal lives under wraps, managed to add a new member to their family without any public fanfare.
Alicia, 35, revealed the news during an interview with her “Hope” co-star Taylor Russell, where they discussed the intense physical training for the film. Taylor mentioned, “When I met you in Korea, you had literally just had your second baby, and the stuff we had to do in the film was so physical.” This casual mention confirmed the new addition to Alicia and Michael’s family.
Reflecting on her experience, Alicia responded, “All women have such different experiences, and going through it a second time was definitely harder for me.” She elaborated on the challenges of her pregnancy, comparing it to a marathon. “Going through those nine months is like a marathon, so it does help if you’re strong going into it. It’s so physically demanding, and I have so much admiration for any woman who has done it.”
Alicia, known for her powerful performances, shared an interesting perspective on acting and motherhood. “I gave birth four times on screen before I did it myself. Your job is to pretend as an actor, but every time I had to give birth, I said to every woman on set, ‘I’m sorry.’ I felt like such an imposter.” This candid admission highlights the physical and emotional complexities of both her career and her real-life experiences.
The couple’s first child was born in September 2021, marking their journey into parenthood. Alicia and Michael have always been private about their relationship, tying the knot in a secret ceremony in October 2017. Their ability to keep significant life events under wraps speaks to their desire for a low-key, private life away from the spotlight.
Alicia and Michael’s relationship has been a topic of interest since they met on the set of “The Light Between Oceans” in 2014. Their chemistry both on and off-screen has been evident, and their partnership has only grown stronger over the years. Despite their busy careers, they have managed to build a family together, prioritizing their personal lives while continuing to take on challenging and rewarding professional projects.
