Jennifer Lawrence, the Oscar-winning star of The Hunger Games and Silver Linings Playbook, is pregnant with her second child. According to news confirmed by a representative for Lawrence on Oct. 20, earlier the actress had been spotted with a baby bump on an otherwise casual outing in Los Angeles.

Lawrence, 34, shares a two-year-old son Cy with her husband Cooke Maroney, one of the celebrated art gallery directors. The romance has been there since 2018, and to keep the charm alive, they tied the knot in a low-key ceremony in 2019. They have kept their personal life and parenting moments mostly away from media attention.

Earlier, in various interviews, Lawrence had talked about highs and lows concerning parenthood. She hid no secret of moments of parental guilt and anxieties over making the right choices for her son. “Every day being a mom feels bad,” she said in an interview with Variety, remembering how work and motherhood balance. But she spoke highly of motherhood and her husband’s involvement more than once, declaring him “the greatest father in the world“.

This second pregnancy adds to the excitement of Lawrence and Maroney in building on their family. Sources close to the couple had earlier spilled that the two had been eager for another child. Their ways of parenting seem to include shielding their children from unnecessary attention from the media by setting boundaries against intrusion into the privacy of their family. Lawrence has talked many times about separating her personal life from her screen life, and in interviews, she has described her family as highly significant yet cherished her career.

Lawrence has talked openly about how motherhood changed everything for her: “The morning after I gave birth, I felt like my whole life had started over,” she once told Vogue in an interview. She also acknowledged that parents have special problems, especially when children come into the world for those in the public eye. She declared her focus is on raising the children in a gentle and down-to-earth atmosphere, under conditions peculiar to a celebrity of her status

While Lawrence has not revealed anything about her due date, yet, her fans, and other media is simply waiting for further details. As of now, the couple appears to be happy as they are all set to welcome this new phase in their life, maintaining their private life and showing up occasionally in public. Fans of Lawrence have deluged sites of social media with warm wishes and congratulatory messages for the actress, on this joyous announcement.
