Baby On The Way: Samara Weaving Reveals Pregnancy With Her Screenwriter Husband
Ready or Not star Samara Weaving is expecting her first child with screenwriter husband Jimmy Warden, revealing the news in an Instagram carousel showcasing her baby bump and standout press-tour looks.
Samara Weaving picked a very on-the-nose way to share some big news: she and her husband, screenwriter Jimmy Warden, are having a baby. She made it Instagram official with a bump reveal and a wink to the movie that made her a scream queen.
The announcement
'Ready or Not: Here I Come'
That was the caption, complete with a baby emoji for emphasis. The post was a carousel: a clear bump shot, a handful of press-tour looks, one sheer lace top that made the pregnancy impossible to miss, and a cozy pre-glam robe moment. Simple, effective, very her.
- Reactions rolled in fast. A friend went with: 'Sexiest pregnant lady ever.' Modern Family alum Sarah Hyland chimed in: 'BABEEEEEE ???' One fan summed up the vibe: 'Whaaaaattttt? Congrats Sam... so happy for you guys.' Another added: 'SAMARA!!!! Congratulations mama!!!' with a pink heart emoji.
The timing tracks with her current promo push, including the Ready or Not sequel chatter. Feels like the perfect full-circle caption for that alone.
How they juggle the jobs (and the distance)
Weaving, 33, and Warden have teamed up on projects before, and they have a standing rule for when work sends them to different sets. As she told People, they try not to let more than two and a half or three weeks go by without seeing each other. He joked that if they stretch it longer, 'we get weird,' which is both relatable and a good reminder to book the flight.
The non-wedding wedding
If you were waiting for photos from a big ceremony, there aren’t any. They got legally married, then the pandemic hit, and the actual celebration never happened. As Weaving puts it: 'We never actually had a wedding.' Warden laughs it off by saying they basically celebrated by making a movie together instead, so their 'wedding' lives on film. Not traditional, but honestly kind of fitting for them.
Bottom line: new baby on the way, work still rolling, and yes, Samara Weaving managed to turn her pregnancy announcement into a clever movie reference. No notes.
