Kate Bosworth and Justin Long are officially parents. The couple recently welcomed their first child, a baby girl, via surrogate, according to Page Six. This marks the first child for both actors.
The âBlue Crushâ star and the âHeâs Just Not That Into Youâ actor have largely kept their relationship low-key since it began, but fans have followed their journey from setmates to soulmates. The couple met while filming âHouse of Darkness” in 2021 and started dating publicly in 2022. They tied the knot in an intimate ceremony at the Rockaway Hotel in Queens in May 2023.
Long hinted at his hopes for parenthood in a sweet Instagram post celebrating Bosworthâs 41st birthday in January 2024. âOne day our kids might ask me, âDad, why did you write sappy things about Mom on that old Instagram app?ââ he wrote. âBecause she completed all of your Dadâs favorite love songs.â Bosworth responded in the comments, saying his tribute âoverwhelmed my cellular makeupâ and added, âWherever we are, with you, I am home.â
Inside Their Low-Key Love Story
Bosworth and Longâs relationship has quietly blossomed in recent years. After filming together in 2021, the two sparked dating rumors before confirming their romance in 2022 with PDA-filled sightings in Hawaii and New York. That same year, they went Instagram official, sharing heartfelt tributes and travel snaps.
By early 2023, engagement buzz picked up when Bosworth was seen wearing a diamond ring at the Vanity Fair Oscars party. The couple later confirmed the engagement and revealed Long popped the question during a vulnerable conversation after a rough patch in their relationship.
They got married just a few months later in what they described as an âimpromptu and casualâ ceremony in New York. Since then, the pair have continued sharing loving messages, birthday tributes and glimpses of their travels to destinations like the Galápagos and Ireland. In January 2024, Longâs birthday tribute to Bosworth sparked speculation that they were ready to start a family â and now, that moment has arrived.
Kate and Justin on Growing Together, Naturally
In March 2025, Bosworth and Long opened up about embracing aging as a couple during an interview at the Clarins Beauty Icons event in Los Angeles. âWe laugh a lot and he’s very, very encouraging⦠He really loves natural aging,â Bosworth, 42, told People. Long, 46, added, âItâs easy to love when somebodyâs aging so beautifully. Itâs very inspiring.â
The pair also credited their bond to trust, open communication and shared self-care rituals â including an LED light mask Long originally gifted to Bosworth, but now enjoys himself. âShe helps me calm down and take the stress away from life,â he said.
They recently celebrated their second wedding anniversary on May 4 which Long once described as âour love dayâ with personal significance, unrelated to âStar Wars,â despite what many fans assume. Bosworth added at the time, âI think we feel very safe together. He can tell me anything and I can tell you anything⦠I appreciate that deeply.â
