In November 2017, the pair revealed that they were expecting baby No. 2. At that time, a spokesperson for the Oscar winner told Us Weekly, "Eddie and Hannah are delighted to confirm they are expecting a second child."
When stopping by "Live with Kelly and Ryan" in February, the star admitted that he had prepared welcoming his second child. He joked, "We've just about got to that stage when we're beginning to get sleep and remember what that word means. Getting prepped to go back into the trenches."
"We don't know (what we're having)-we're not going to find out," he said to Kelly Ripa and Ryan Seacrest. "Last time we didn't know either, and we did that thing where there was basically only one name for each sex that we agreed on."
In 2017, Eddie won the Empire Awards for Best Actor he obtained from for his role as Newt Scamander in "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them". He will reprise his role as the Magizoologist in "Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald" which is set for a November 16 release. He also voiced Dug in "Early Man".
