16 Celebrities Expecting Babies in 2022

Other than celebrity hookups and breakups, there is probably no other kind of famous person gossip that gets more attention than the possiblity of a baby. Babies are always a cause for celebration, but there's nothing like a celebrity baby bump to get the paparazzi cameras clicking and the gossip websites whispering. And while we are still waiting for confirmation on some rumoured celebrity pregnancies, there are plenty of confirmed ones.

From a Kardashian baby set to be born any day now (though we wouldn't be surprised if more than one Kardashian or Kardashian-adjacent cousin arrives on the scene this year, right, Kourtney and Travis?) to the first baby for one of our favorite Marvel movie stars/Taylor Swift ex-boyfriends, there are plenty of little bundles of joy coming to keep all of us gossip hounds happy through the end of the year. We've got first, second, and third babies on the way from parents who include athletes, singers, Broadway stars, reality stars, and actors, too.

So let's recap all the famous folks who have officially confirmed that there is a stork on the way this year.

Khloé Kardashian & Tristan Thompson

Khloé Kardashian and her on-again, off-again boyfriend Tristan Thompson are expecting their second child together. The baby, reported to be a boy, will be arriving via surrogate sometime soon. He will be Khloé's second child and Tristan's fourth (which is a big reason why they are on-again, off-again).

Mandy Moore & Taylor Goldsmith

Singer and This Is Us star Mandy Moore will be welcoming her second child with musician husband Taylor Goldsmith this fall. She happily reported that her son, Gus, will "be the BEST big brother."

J.J. Watt & Kealia Ohai

Sometime in October, a baby with a very high possibility of being sporty will be born. Football star JJ Watt and his professional soccer player wife, Kealia Ohai, are expecting their first child. We imagine there will be no shortage of baby gifts that involve small balls for this couple!

Gina Rodriguez & Joe LoCicero

Jane the Virgin star Gina Rodriguez and her husband of three years, Joe LoCicero, recently shared on Instagram that they are happily expecting their first baby together. She announced the big news on her 38th birthday, but hasen't revealed a due date yet.

Heidi & Spencer Pratt

After grappling with fertility challenges, reality TV's most fame-hungry and crystal-loving stars, Heidi and Spencer Pratt, are expecting their second child, another boy. Heidi recently posted that she's already five months along, so son Gunner should be joining the big brother ranks sometime in late fall or early winter.

Actress Zawe Ashton (she's in the new movie Mr. Malcolm's List, which looks very fun) is expecting her first child with partner (and former Taylor Swift flame) Tom Hiddleston. The pair, who met in 2019 while starring in a play together, got engaged in March. We're guessing they aren't going to consider Loki as a name, though, despite the obvious Marvel movie connection.

Ali Stroker & David Perlow

Tony Award-winning actress (and Glee guest star) Ali Stroker announced that she and her husband of one year, actor David Perlow, are expecting their first child. "The newest member of the team is arriving in November. A dream come true!!" she gushed on Instagram when she announced the news.

Val Chmerkovskiy & Jenna Johnson Chmerkovskiy

Dancing With the Stars pros Val Chmerkovskiy and Jenna Johnson Chmerkovskiy are going to have an adorable pair of tiny twinkle toes to kiss soon! The couple, who married in 2019, are expecting their first child after struggling with infertility for several years, leading Jenna to share, "My heart is overflowing with gratitude."

Heather Rae Young & Tarek El Moussa

After being open about their efforts to get pregnant and the challenges of IVF, Selling Sunset star Heather Rae Young and her HGTV star husband, Tarek El Moussa, announced that they are expecting their first child together. Though they had been planning to do a transfer procedure, the couple ended up conceiving their baby — who is a boy — naturally.

Rafael Nadal & Mery Perelló

Tennis superstar Rafael Nadal and his longtime love, Mery Perelló (they dated for 14 years and have been married for three), are a very private couple. But Rafa did reveal during a press conference in June 2022 that they are currently expecting their first child.

Patrick & Brittany Mahomes

NFL quarterback Patrick Mahomes and his wife, Brittany, are already parents to a 1-year-old cutie named Sterling, and it looks like Sterling isn't going to be an only child for long. The newly married couple is expecting baby No. 2, a boy, so let the future quarterback jokes begin.

Jesse Tyler Ferguson & Justin Mikita

Modern Family star Jesse Tyler Ferguson and his husband, actor and theatre producer Justin Mikita, are already dads to 2-year-old son Beckett. Thanks to the help of a surrogate, they are looking forward to welcoming another baby in 2022.

Kelly Osbourne & Sid Wilson

Kelly Osbourne, who recently shared the news that she is expecting her first child with boyfriend Sid Wilson, has also revealed that she's been working on her sobriety as well. "What a difference a year can make! If you would have told me 365 days ago that I would be sober, happy, and about to be a mumma I would have laughed in your face," she wrote on Instagram. "Life is truly amazing when you do the work. Thank you to everyone who has supported me on this journey. I love you all so much!"

Hilaria & Alec Baldwin
