Samara Weaving is officially a mom.

The Ready or Not 2 actress has welcomed her first child with husband Jimmy Warden, according to a new confirmation from People. While the couple has largely kept the news private, recent public appearances had already sparked speculation that the actress had given birth in recent months.

Samara, 34, first revealed her pregnancy publicly earlier this year when she stepped onto the red carpet on March 20, 2026 with a visible baby bump. Since then, fans had been closely watching for updates from the notoriously private actress, who has largely kept details about her personal life away from social media and press headlines.

That speculation intensified this week after Samara appeared at the SAG-AFTRA Foundation Conversations Presents Carolina Caroline event held Tuesday, May 26, at The Meryl Streep Center for Performing Artists in Los Angeles. During the appearance, the actress no longer appeared visibly pregnant, prompting widespread reports that she and Jimmy had already welcomed their child.

People later confirmed the news.

While the couple has not publicly shared the baby’s name, birth date, or gender, the announcement marks a major milestone for the pair, whose relationship has largely unfolded away from the Hollywood spotlight despite both working in the film industry.

Samara and Jimmy’s love story actually began on a movie set. The two first met while working on the 2017 horror-comedy The Babysitter, which starred Samara and was produced by Jimmy. Their relationship quietly developed behind the scenes before eventually becoming public.

According to Australia’s Who magazine, the couple became engaged in 2019 and tied the knot later that same year. Since then, they’ve maintained an intentionally low-key marriage, occasionally appearing together at premieres and industry events but rarely speaking publicly about their relationship.

That privacy has become part of Samara’s appeal in Hollywood. Over the years, she has built a reputation for letting her work speak louder than her personal life. From breakout performances in Ready or Not and Babylon to her growing status as a horror favorite, Samara has steadily become one of the industry’s most sought-after actresses without leaning heavily into celebrity culture.

Now, fans are celebrating a completely new chapter for the star.

And as Samara steps into motherhood while balancing a thriving Hollywood career, it’s clear this next era of her life is already beginning on a joyful note.

Congrats to the happy couple!
