Ewan and Mary Elizabeth met on the set of Fargo and have been dating since 2017, and starred in Birds of Prey together.

The couple didn’t announce that they were expecting a baby, and the actress was not photographed in public during her pregnancy.

Along with Clara, 25, and Ester, 19, Ewan is also father to Jamyan, 20, and Anouk, 10 from his last marriage.

Meeting in late 2016, the couple were spotted kissing in late 2017 kissing after Winstead split from her husband of 7 years Riley Stearns in May of that year.

Ewan then announced his split from Eve Mavrakis in early 2018, citing irreconcilable differences as the reason for their divorce after 22 years.
