Marvel star Tom Hiddleston and English actress Zawe Ashton are expecting their first child.

Ashton made the announcement by debuting her baby bump at the premiere of her new movie "Mr. Malcolm's List" at the DGA Theater in New York City on Wednesday.

The actress posed for photographers on the carpet in the ethereal ensemble -- a tulle gown by Sabina Bilenko Couture that cascaded over her burgeoning baby bump.

Hiddleston and Ashton were first linked in 2019 when they collaborated in the West End production of “Betrayal” where they played each other’s love interests.

In September 2021, they made their red carpet debut as a couple at the Tony Awards.

Hiddleston announced he is engaged to Zawe Ashton in a June 14 interview with the Los Angeles Times.

The British couple sparked engagement rumors when the actress was photographed at the 2022 BAFTA Awards with a diamond ring on her left hand in March.

Hiddleston, best known for playing antihero Loki in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, previously revealed that he prefers to keep his romantic relationships separate from his life as a public figure.

"Everyone is entitled to a private life. I love what I do, and I dedicate myself with absolute commitment to making great art and great entertainment, and in my mind, I don't conflict the two. My work is in the public sphere and I have a private life. And those two things are separate." he told Britain's Telegraph newspaper in 2017.
