Is Gwyneth Paltrow pregnant? Gwyneth Paltrow is a famous actress but she's equally famous for her promotion of all things holistic and health conscious on her lifestyle site Goop. If you click on over, you'll find her recommendations for everything from hotels in distant cities to wellness routines that involve radical cleanses and jade eggs for your vagina.
As crazy as some of her health claims sound, you can't deny the blonde star is looking great and is apparently living her best life with Brad Falchuk. The pair have kept things private for most of the year plus relationship but nothing stays secret in Hollywood for long. They confirmed their engagement on her website but there are other stories circulating about what the future holds for the pair.
There are rumors the Hollywood power couple are planning to have a baby together. What's going on with the lovebirds and will they be bringing home a bundle of joy?
1. How serious are they?
Paltrow and Falchuk reportedly started dating in early 2017. By the beginning of 2018, the two confirmed they were engaged. Supposedly, Falchuck had proposed more than a year before they went public with the news.
2. They may actually be already married.
In mid-April, the pair hosted a star-studded engagement party for themselves but some people suspected it was actually a surprise wedding. If it was, it was a change for Paltrow who has been giddy about wedding plans, saying "I’ve never had a wedding before so even though I’m 45, I sort of feel like a 21-year-old. It’s kind of fun to talk about with my girlfriends. They send me pictures of dresses — they’re as excited about it as I am.”
3. This is Gwyneth's second marriage.
Who can forget when Gwyneth and ex-husband Chris Martin of Coldplay announced their divorce by inventing the phrase "consciously uncoupling?" The two split in 2014 after 10 years together.
4. It's also a second marriage for Brad .
Falchuk, a tv writer and producer, was also married for a decade. He and wife Suzanne Bukinik divorced in 2013.
5. They met on the set of Glee.
Falchuk co-created Glee with Ryan Murphy. He and Gwyneth met on the set in 2010. No need to raise any eyebrows though — there were no hanky-panky rumors at the time. It was totally professional.
6. They have four kids between them.
Everyone knows about Gwyneth's kids Apple and Moses. But Brad also has two kids of his own named, more conventionally, Brody and Isabella. He had been known to take Isabella as his date to events sometimes.
7. And baby makes 7?
Rumors are swirling the pair wants to add one more child to their blended family. The two have reportedly been considering their options for bringing a new baby on board.
8. Is Gwyneth pregnant?
No, the 45 year old star doesn't have any buns in the oven — that's a throwback Insta post from when she was pregnant with Apple. Sources say they discussed IVF and surrogates as options but they're more strongly in favor of adoption after seeing what a lovely experience that was for Sandra Bullock and Charlize Theron.
No matter what Brad and Gwyneth end up deciding about their family, we wish them many years of happiness together.
