Frances Bean Cobain & Riley Hawk
Frances Bean Cobain and Riley Hawk shared a series of snapshots in 2024 that shocked everybody: she and Riley are parents! She shared the photos of their newborn son to her Instagram with the caption reading, “9.17.2024/ Ronin Walker Cobain Hawk ?? ? Welcome to the world most beautiful son. We love you more than anything ?.”
For those who don’t know, Frances and Riley have been together since 2021. While they’ve kept their romance quite private, we do know they tied the knot on Oct 7, 2023.
John Mulaney & Olivia Munn
In unexpected news, John Mulaney and Olivia Munn announced on Sept 22, 2024 that they have welcomed a daughter via surrogacy, shocking everyone since no one knew this was happening behind-the-scenes.
Munn shared the news of their daughter’s arrival on Instagram with the caption reading, “Méi June Mulaney came into the world September 14, 2024, the year of the dragon??.”
Mulaney and Munn have been together since 2021 and have welcomed another child together in late 2021, a son named Malcolm Hi?p Mulaney.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt & Tasha McCauley
All three of Joseph-Gordon Levitt and Tasha McCauley’s have been secrets to the public. Their two sons were born in 2015 and 2017, and in 2024, Gordon-Levitt revealed they had welcomed a daughter nearly two years prior.
“You know, one of the best parts [of being a dad] I think about playing with kids is their lack of inhibition, willingness to just, like, pretend that something else is happening,” he said on a PBS podcast, per People. “Pretend that reality is, is completely something else.”
“My daughter’s almost 2. She’ll just be perfectly happy to pretend to make eggs. And there are no eggs. She doesn’t care. She doesn’t need convincing VFX,” he continued. “All you have to do is go ‘shhhh’ and a pretend faucet is turned on. It’s water. That I think is a lot of acting and you can just make reality whatever you want to. It’s magic.”
Wayne Brady
Wayne Brady announced during the premiere of Wayne Brady: The Family Remix that he secretly welcomed a new addition to the family with ex-girlfriend Tina with whome he had an on-and-off relationship.
“My family is everything to me but there are some things I’ve never told anybody outside of this immediate family. Like, I happen to have a 6-month-old son that people don’t know about,” he said, per Us Weekly.
Brady also shares an adult daughter with ex-wife Mandie Taketa. “This is what happened,” Maketa told the cameras. “Tina and Wayne had been broken up a year. Then [his] grandma Val passes away so we go to her funeral … then we come back. Something happened — you fill in the blank. Then two weeks later we get a phone call from Tina that she’s pregnant with Wayne’s baby.”
“When I first found out that Tina was pregnant, I was floored. It was not on my bingo card,” Brady said. “A 51-year-old dad? I didn’t see it coming. So was I happy? No. Because I was in shock.”
Alicia Vikander & Michael Fassbender
Actors Alicia Vikander and Michael Fassbender secretly welcomed a second child who she gave birth to prior to filming Hope, per Elle.
“All women have such different experiences, and going through it a second time was definitely harder for me. But I think training [for the movie] made it easier,” she told the outlet in July 2024.
“[Pregnancy is] so physically demanding, and I have so much admiration for any woman who has done it,” she continued. “I gave birth four times on screen before I did it myself. Your job is to pretend as an actor, but every time I had to give birth, I said to every woman on set, ‘I’m sorry.’ I felt like such an imposter.”
Fred Armisen & Riki Lindhome
Riki Lindhome dropped two bombshells in July 2024 when she told People that not only did she and comedian Fred Armisen tie the knot in June 2022. They became an “insta-family” when Lindhome welcomed a son via surrogate (also a secret to the world!) in March 2022 — just a few weeks after the longtime friends officially began dating.
The actress told Armisen that it wouldn’t make him a jerk and she wouldn’t be mad at him if he didn’t want to raise baby Keaton with her.
“I told him, ‘So you just tell me what your heart says, and he said ‘Yes.’ It was just insta-family, basically.”
Mindy Kaling
Mindy Kaling was already a mom to daughter, Katherine, 2, when she secretly gave birth to her second child, son Spencer, in September 2020. She revealed the news on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert when he asked her how she spent her time in quarantine.
“I’m telling this for the first time, it feels so strange. I gave birth to a baby boy on September 3,” Kaling said. “This is news to a lot of people, it’s true.”
In June 2024, she announced that she secretly welcomed a third child earlier that year. “In late February I gave birth to my daughter, Anne,” The Office star wrote in her announcement. “She’s the best birthday present I could’ve ever imagined. When things are hard, whenever I veer towards cynicism, my three kids are such a great reminder of the pure joy in my life.”
“I’m so lucky I live in a place where I could do this by myself, on my own timeline,” she added.
Elon Musk
Tesla CEO Elon Musk has quietly welcomed several kids and takes issue with the word “secret.” In June 2024, Musk confirmed to Page Six that he had welcomed his 12th child and second child with Shivon Zilis earlier in the year.
“As for ‘secretly fathered,’ that is also false,” he said. “All our friends and family know. Failure to issue a press release, which would be bizarre, does not mean ‘secret.’”
It was confirmed in 2023 through Walter Isaacson’s biography entitled Elon Musk that Musk and ex Grimes secretly welcomed a third child named Techno “Tau” Mechanicus in the previous year or so.
He also secretly welcomed twins with Strider and Azure with Zilis in 2021.
Julia Stiles
Julia Stiles secretly welcomed Baby No. 3 in 2023 and casually dropped the news in a 2024 interview with The New York Times.
“I’m kind of like a bundle of emotions because I have a 5-month-old baby and I went into directing my first movie,” she said, referring to her directorial debut for Wish You Were Here.
Stiles also shares sons Strummer and Arlo with husband Preston Cook and did not share whether she is still a boy mom nor the name of the baby. What she did share is that she’s somehow running on fumes but more energized than ever.
“I think that actually being a mom is really great training for being a director,” she said. “You have to think 10 steps ahead but also be in the present moment. You have to be good at time management. You have to be sensitive to people’s needs and guide them, but also hold a boundary.”
Benji Madden & Cameron Diaz
In March 2024 Benji Madden and Cameron Diaz revealed the news that they welcomed a son, named Cardinal into their now family of four. They shared the news on Instagram, saying, “We are blessed and excited to announce the birth of our Son, Cardinal Madden????He is awesome and We are all so happy he is here! For the kids safety and privacy we won’t be posting any pictures- but he’s a really cute ??We are feeling so blessed and grateful ??Sending much love from our fam to yours ????Best wishes and Good Afternoon!! ????”
A few days into 2020, the couple also surprised the world when they welcomed baby Raddix. “We are so happy, blessed, and grateful to begin this new decade by announcing the birth of our daughter, Raddix Madden,” the couple wrote. “We also feel a strong instinct to protect our little one’s privacy.”
Tamsin Egerton & Josh Hartnett
Actors Tamsin Egerton and Josh Hartnett are notoriously private about their kids, so it wasn’t terribly surprising to find out they secretly welcomed a fourth. During the 2024 SAG Awards red carpet, he casually dropped the news when responding to whether he had seen “Josh Hartnett Renaissance” trending online.
“I have not,” he said. “I have four kids, I live in the countryside. I’m busy either working or taking care of them, but thank you. That’s really kind.”
The couple shares three other kids — born between 2015 and 2019 — whose names have not been revealed.

Adam Driver & Joanne Tucker
Photos in February 2023 of ultra-private couple Adam Driver and Joanne Tucker unloading a baby bath outside their New York while Tucker sported a large baby bump first revealed the couple were expecting. However, the couple never spoke about their arrival publicly.
In December, Page Six reported that Driver announced the birth of his daughter in a rehearsal for his SNL opening monologue, though the line was cut by the time the live show aired.

It was such an intense, weird moment, because I’m watching that video and it’s like eight minutes long, so you’re sitting there and I had just had this amazing, joyful, expanding moment, plus my dad had passed away recently, so [my son] was named after my father… I don’t even know what, really, the word is to describe it.
