Waterhouse has been in a relationship with the Batman star, 37, for more than five years. The couple was first romantically linked in July 2018, when a source told People they were “dating” after they were spotted putting on some PDA while out together in London. In an interview with The Sunday Times in February of this year, Waterhouse opened up about her relationship with Pattinson. “I’m shocked that I’m so happy with someone for nearly five years,” she said, adding that the couple never goes more than two months without seeing each other. “I had two days off the other day, and it was like, no question I’m going back to see him.” The Daisy Jones & The Six star also shared that she still gets “incredibly excited” when Pattinson’s name pops up on her phone. “I think he feels the same about me,” she noted. “We’ve always got so much to say, and I find him hilarious.”
Pattinson’s Projects
Besides being in the next two installments of The Batman film series, Pattinson will next be seen in a film directed by Parasite‘s Bong Joon-ho, titled Mickey 17. Premiering in March 2024, the rest of the cast includes Steven Yeun, Naomi Ackie, Toni Collette, and Mark Ruffalo. The sci-fi film is based on the dystopian novel entitled Mickey 7 by Edward Ashton.
Celebrities Who Welcomed Babies In 2023
In 2023, lots of celebrity couples welcomed babies. Some celebrated the birth of their very first child, while others, added a new bundle of joy to their growing family. In some cases, celebrities who couldn’t have a natural birth have welcomed children via surrogate. No matter how their children were brought into the world, a baby is a blessing. These stars have opened up about their pregnancy journey and celebrated with fans as they welcomed their newborns. There must be something in the celebrity gene pool that makes their babies not look like aliens fresh out of the womb because their newborns are so adorable.
Approximately 134.28 million births will occur across the globe in 2023, according to the United Nation’s medium variant of the population projections. Based on that projection, there should be an average of about 368,000 births per day in 2023. However, birth rates have declined in most states across the US in recent years, as women are having babies at an older age, according to data released by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Birth rates among women in their late 30s and early 40s rose in the last decade, and the birth rate among women over 45 also exceeded one birth per 1,000 population for the first time in more than a decade. Meanwhile, the teen birth rate dropped to a record low last year, according to the data.
As for Hollywood couples, there seems to be no shortage of babies being born in 2023. The list keeps growing and so do their families. Since the year isn’t over yet, take a look below to see which celebrities welcomed babies in 2023.
