Aubrey Plaza and Christopher Abbott Welcome a Daughter

Reportedly born in late July, the child arrived earlier than the originally announced fall due date with no name or official details released.

Overview

  • Multiple outlets report the couple's first child, a daughter, was born in the last week of July 2026, earlier than the fall due date their spokesperson gave in April.
  • Plaza was photographed holding the newborn outside a New York theater on Sunday, August 9, after attending Christopher Abbott’s final performance of Death of a Salesman.
  • Neither Plaza nor Abbott has issued an official statement and no name or other birth details have been shared by the family or their representatives.
  • The pair met on the film Black Bear in 2019 and reunited professionally for the Off‑Broadway play Danny and the Deep Blue Sea in 2023–24, making this the first child for both actors.
  • The public sighting highlights the couple’s tight control of private life, and observers should expect limited official comment as the family adjusts to parenthood and shields their newborn from press attention.
