Stepping onto the red carpet at the 74th Berlinale International Film Festival premiere of her latest film The Kitchen in Berlin, Germany, on Friday, February 16, Rooney Mara, 38, proudly showcased her burgeoning baby bump, officially confirming her pregnancy sans statement. Clad in a striking black strapless Givenchy gown, Mara elegantly cradled her belly as she posed for the cameras. Complementing her attire, she opted for a natural makeup look and styled her hair into a sleek bun.

While Mara’s radiant appearance sparked excitement and curiosity among fans and media alike, the actress has chosen to remain discreet regarding further details about her pregnancy. For now, neither Mara nor her partner Phoenix have disclosed more information, including the sex and due date of baby no. 2.

Mara and Joaquin became engaged in July 2019. They became first-time parents in the summer of 2020 with the arrival of their first child, a son named River, honoring the memory of Phoenix’s late brother, actor River Phoenix.

Rooney and Joaquin have an 11-year age gap between them, but true to their private nature, they’ve never addressed their difference in age, despite it garnering attention from fans.

Phoenix seemed to confirm that they married in secret during a March 2022 interview when he referred to Rooney as his “wife.”

“He [director Mike Mills] invited me to his house and we started discussing why he wanted to make this film with me and eventually I listened to my wife, who is always right, and I agreed,” the

actor explained.

Rooney and Joaquin have a long history of collaborating together, and appeared to be colleagues and friends for some time before their relationship turned romantic.

The pair first crossed paths on the set of the 2013 film Her, directed by Spike Jonze. While they didn’t start dating during that time, their professional collaboration laid the groundwork for a deeper connection. It wasn’t until they reunited on the set of Mary Magdalene in 2016 that their romantic relationship reportedly began to blossom.
