Actress Emma Roberts is expecting her first child, a baby boy, she announced Sunday night with new photos featuring boyfriend Garrett Hedlund.
The “American Horror Story” star, 29, shared a series of photos on Instagram from home cradling a baby bump and wearing a white, polka-dotted dress while her boyfriend, 35-year-old “Tron: Legacy” actor and model Hedlund, held his arm around her.
“Me…and my two favorite guys,” Roberts captioned the post.
Roberts and Hedlund, who were first spotted together in public early last year, received a flooding of well-wishes in the comments section. USA TODAY has reached out to the couple’s representatives for further comment.
“Love you,” wrote Oscar-winning actress Julia Roberts, Emma’s aunt.
Lea Michele, who revealed last week she and husband Zandy Reich had welcomed their first baby, also a boy, told Roberts she will be “the greatest mama. I love you Em! Boy moms together”
Kristen Chenoweth, Busy Philipps, Awkwafina, Jamie Lynn Spears and Roberts’ “American Horror Story” co-star Sarah Paulson also shared their congratulations.
“Congratulations angel,” wrote Rumer Willis. “so excited for you”
Roberts was previously engaged to her “American Horror Story” co-star Evan Peters, first in 2013 before calling it off in 2015 and later reuniting in 2016. The couple called things off for good last March, Us Weekly and E! News reported at the time. The actress had been recently photographed getting close to Hedlund in public.
Hedlund dated and was briefly engaged to his “On the Road” co-star Kirsten Dunst for four years before their split was reported in 2016. The actor is best known for his roles in “Pan,” “Country Strong” and “Unbroken” and in 2013, joined the lucrative ranks of actors who have become the face of Yves Saint Laurent’s fragrance La Nuit de L’Homme.
This will be the first child for both Roberts and Hedlund.
