Troian Bellisario and Patrick J. Adams Are Expecting Their Third Child!
Pretty Little Liars alum Troian Bellisario is expecting her and husband Patrick J. Adams‘ third child.
On Tuesday, November 4, Adams, 44, shared the news through Instagram, posting a black-and-white image of Bellisario, 40, tenderly cradling her baby bump while looking out a window.
In the caption, he expressed, “We don’t know your name yet, nor your gender. We don’t know what your smile will look like or how your first laugh will touch our hearts. We don’t know what will make you laugh or cry, or what food will become your first love.” He added, “We’re uncertain what might scare you or how you’ll learn to overcome it. We’re unsure about the music that will inspire you to dance or what clothes you’ll choose when you’re strong enough to reach for them. We can’t quite fathom the joy we’ll feel when we hold you for the first time.”
Adams continued, “We’ve experienced this before, but we’ve never been here with you, and so truly, we know very little. Almost nothing. What we are certain of is that we have an endless reserve of love waiting for you. Love, laughter, tears, dance parties, lullabies, and lessons await. We’ll share some things with you, but you will teach us everything else.”
The Suits alum acknowledged that while they “don’t know much,” they are certain that “there’s nothing we want more than to be your parents.”
“You’re about to step onto a strange stage, but we’ll be right there with you through the whole terrifying, wonderful, and beautiful journey. Thank you for choosing us. We will always choose you. Soon…” he concluded.
Friends celebrated the announcement in the comments, including PLL alum Ian Harding, who exclaimed, “So so so happy for you all. Congratulations!”
Bellisario hinted at her pregnancy in an Instagram post reflecting on her 40th birthday celebration.
“Here comes a new decade and a whole new human to accompany it,” she wrote alongside a video showing the couple posing for portraits with their daughters, Aurora, 7, and Elliot, 4.
The actress also gave a heartfelt acknowledgment to Adams, stating, “The biggest thanks goes to my partner and the most incredible person I’ve ever met @patrickjadams who understood exactly what I wanted, handed me the camera to begin experimenting, drove our camper van two days during his shoot just to be present, and brought our girls so we could be a family amid it all. I love you immensely and am so grateful for everything you do and have done to make this life an adventure of goodness and love.”
Bellisario and Adams first met in 2009 but broke up two years later. However, they soon reconciled, and Us Weekly confirmed their engagement in 2014. They were married in 2016.
Aurora was born in 2018, and both Adams and Bellisario have openly discussed her little sister’s “exciting” arrival in 2021 — which occurred in a hospital parking garage.
“[Troian] was still on all fours, her rear facing the windshield,” Adams recalled during the “Katie’s Crib” podcast shortly after Elliot’s birth. “Her rear was at my head level, so I just went and pulled down her pants, and [the baby’s] head was right there. … [It] all unfolded in about three minutes.”
