Rooney Mara debuts baby bump expecting second child with Joaquin

Rooney Mara American actress

Rooney Mara recently made a stunning appearance at the 74th Berlinale International Film Festival in Berlin, Germany, where she proudly displayed her baby bump on the red carpet. The 38-year-old actress, known for her roles in films like 'The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo,' cradled her belly in a black strapless gown as she posed for photos. Completing her elegant look with a sleek bun and natural makeup, Mara exuded grace and happiness.

Mara, who has yet to publicly address her second pregnancy, shares her excitement with fiancé Joaquin Phoenix. The couple, engaged since 2019, already have a son named River, born in 2020. Sources close to the couple revealed that River has brought immense joy to their lives and strengthened their bond. The private couple values normalcy and a healthy upbringing for their children.

While Mara did not confirm her pregnancy with River publicly, her commitment to privacy surprised even her costume designer for the movie 'Nightmare Alley.' Luis Sequeira shared how he discovered the news during fittings and respected Mara's desire to keep the information confidential.

Maintaining privacy extends to their family life, as Mara and Phoenix aim to give River and their future child a sense of normalcy. They are open-minded about their children's choices and do not wish to impose their beliefs on them. Phoenix mentioned in an interview that he supports River in his decisions, even if they don't align with his own, such as following a vegan diet.

As the couple prepares to welcome their second child, fans and well-wishers eagerly anticipate the newest addition to their family. With their shared commitment to privacy and respect for their children's autonomy, Rooney Mara and Joaquin Phoenix embody a thoughtful and caring approach to parenthood that resonates with many.
