Claire Danes and her husband Hugh Dancy are getting ready to welcome a new member to their family.

The Homeland actor is currently pregnant with her third child. She and Dancy already have two sons together, 10-year-old Cyrus Michael Christopher and 4-year-old Rowan. The couple wed in a quiet ceremony held in France in September 2009 after first meeting while filming the movie Evening in Newport, Rhode Island in 2006. Mamie Gummer, who also appeared in the film with the two stars, told People at the time that Danes and Dancy's courtship was a low-key one, bonding over games of Boggle and Scrabble on set. “I was there when it was happening and it’s something that I will never forget,” she told the outlet. “I’m incredibly happy for them. They are perfect for each other.”

When Danes became pregnant with her second son in 2018, she was very much looking forward to experiencing motherhood again, saying at a Homeland FYC event, “Pretty soon I get to retire for a little while and just be pregnant, which I look forward to.” She added, “It feels like a huge luxury. When I was pregnant with my first son, I worked until I was in my eighth month, so this feels like a huge gift, to have a chance to kick my feet up a little bit.” In 2015, she also told People how much she was loving getting to raise her eldest son Cyrus on the set of the show, gushing, “Motherhood is amazing.” She added, “He says, ‘Action!’ He’s a real set baby. It’s really sweet. He loves the [show’s operations room] because of all the lights. It’s a great environment for a kid. It’s the circus!”

This happy news also comes after a huge professional year for Danes. Last month, she was nominated for a Golden Globe in the best supporting actress in a limited series category for her performance in Fleishman Is in Trouble. She was also nominated for a Critics' Choice Award for best supporting actress in a movie/miniseries. Should Danes win, this will be her fifth Golden Globe award.
