Tom Hiddleston and his fiancee Zawee Ashton are now parents as the British actress had reportedly given birth to their first baby together.

The birth of the couple’s baby was confirmed by an anonymous source exclusively to Us Weekly today, Oct. 27 (Oct. 26 in the United States).

“Tom and Zawe are loving being new parents and are filled with joy,” the source was quoted as saying. “They have been having the struggles of new parents and aren’t sleeping much but are thrilled.”

Ashton confirmed her pregnancy last June by showing off her baby bump at the New York City special screening of her film “Mr. Malcolm’s List.” Though Hiddleston was not present during the event, Ashton still looked stunning in a Sabina Bilenko Couture gown when she walked the red carpet with her co-stars Freida Pinto, Sope Dirisu, Theo James and Sianad Gregory.

News of the couple’s growing family came in the same month that the “Loki” star announced his engagement to Ashton. The pair had met while working at the 2019 revival of the play “Betrayal.”

Meanwhile, the actress is set to appear in “The Marvels,” the upcoming sequel to the 2019 film “Captain Marvel.”  /ra
