Kat Graham Is Pregnant: Vampire Diaries Star Expecting Baby With Husband Bryant Wood
The Vampire Diaries alum Kat Graham is expecting her first child with husband Bryant Wood, unveiling the news with intimate Polaroids that sparked an outpouring of love from fans and fellow stars.
Kat Graham is leveling up from Mystic Falls witch to new mom. The Vampire Diaries alum and her husband, Bryant Wood, are expecting their first child, and they announced it with a very Kat-and-Bryant move: an artsy run of black-and-white Polaroids, full of cuddles and one very proud baby bump.
"We're having a baby!!!"
That was the caption under the Instagram carousel, where Wood is basically glued to the bump in almost every shot. The comments came in fast from fans and friends, including a bunch of familiar TVD names.
Who showed up in the comments
- Nina Dobrev and Candice King kept it classic with congrats.
- Nathalie Kelley (Sibil on TVD) went heartfelt: "What a lucky soul to have you as her mommy." Worth noting: that's her wording, not an official gender reveal.
- Nikki Reed (married to Ian Somerhalder) cheered them on and referenced some meaningful conversations she and Graham had over the summer.
- Natalie Kuckenburg, Paul Wesley's fiancée, added her congratulations too.
How we got here
Graham and Wood were close friends for five years before it turned romantic in June 2023. Around the same time, Graham confirmed in July 2023 that she and director Darren Genet had ended their six-year relationship; she wished him well and kept it amicable. Graham and Wood kept their new relationship pretty quiet at first, then quietly tied the knot in Los Angeles in October 2023 in a ceremony officiated by a friend.
On the work side, the couple collaborates with Frank Elaridi as co-founders of Modern Nirvana, a wellness-centric venture they've been building together.
Now they're adding a baby to the mix. Big congrats to the new parents-to-be.
