Aubrey Plaza made a very notable appearance in New York this week, at the Tribeca festival where the premiere of the film was screened The Accompanistby Zach Woods, in which she plays the role of a young social worker alongside Susan Sarandon. But while posing in front of the paparazzi, it was especially her rounded belly, which she was caressing, which attracted all the attention.

The actress, who plays Harper Spiller in season 2 of The White Lotus, is expecting her first child with her partner Christopher Abbott, also an actor. Together for more than a year, the couple began dating after the suicide of Aubrey Plaza’s husband, Jeff Baena, from whom she had been separated since 2024 and who died on January 3, 2025. Her pregnancy had been revealed in the magazinePeople last April and this Thursday evening, the forty-year-old showed off a belly that was already very present.

A birth between friends

In the columns of the American tabloid TMZwe learn that Aubrey Plaza reportedly told a reporter that Susan Sarandon, her on-screen partner, would be her preferred choice to accompany her during a home birth… before citing several other famous friends that she would also like to have by her side for this opportunity. The topic resurfaced after a recent joke Aubrey made on Seth Meyers’ show. The actress confided with humor that she would like to be assisted during her delivery by the host himself, or even by Henry Winkler. A nod to the sitcom Parks and Recreationin which the character played by Henry Winkler already helped Aubrey’s to give birth in one of the episodes. The star is expected to give birth this fall, which gives her time to choose who will accompany her on the big day into the labor room.
