Tom Hiddleston is set to become a father for the first time as he prepares to welcome a baby with Zawe Ashton.
The Loki actor’s fiancée, Zawe, debuted a blossoming baby bump at
the premiere of her new movie, Mr Malcom’s List, in New York City on
Wednesday night.
The 37-year-old actress also confirmed the baby news in an article with Vogue magazine of her getting ready for the red carpet event.
Mum-to-be Zawe looked stunning at the Big Apple premiere, in a flowing beige dress encrusted with what looked to be diamonds, her growing bump complementing the outfit.
Tom and Zawe’s happy news comes just weeks after Tom confirmed their engagement following several years together.
The 41-year-old Marvel star has been in a relationship with the former Fresh
Meat actress for three years, the pair first meeting as they co-starred in a revival of Betrayal in London’s West End.
Tom and Zawe tend to keep their relationship out of the spotlight, however the actor confirmed they were engaged in June following months of speculation.

He told the LA Times newspaper he was ‘very happy,’ after rumours of an engagement began in March as they were reportedly congratulated by pals at the 2022 Baftas.
A gorgeous diamond ring was also spotted on Zawe’s hand in a snap shared to social media by AJ Odudu from the event, but neither Tom nor Zawe chose to comment at the time.

The pair only went public with their romance last year, but it is believed they had been living together in Atlanta, Georgia, for some time before then while Tom was shooting DIsney Plus series Loki.
Their relationship was eventually confirmed after the parents-to-be were seen indulging in PDA on holiday in Ibiza in September, before making their red carpet debut at the Tony Awards in New York.
A source previously told The Sun: ‘Tom and Zawe have stayed quiet about their
relationship but she has spent the last few weeks with him in the US.

‘They are very well suited and enjoy the quieter side of life away from
the glitz and glamour of the showbiz world.’
Tom is said to have grown more private about his personal life following the intense scrutiny of his brief romance with Taylor Swift in 2016.

He told the New York Times after their short-lived relationship ended: ‘Yes, I’m protective about my internal world now in probably a different way.
‘That’s because I didn’t realise it needed protecting before.’
