“Fantastic Four” star Vanessa Kirby is now a mom!
Over the weekend, Kirby’s fiancé Paul Rabil announced the birth of their first child.
Alongside a series of photos, Rabil wrote on Instagram, “I’m learning that becoming a parent slows you down and wakes you up at the same time. That I’m really grateful for everyone’s health, that I get to wake up everyday to mum’s enormous love, and that we get to have you in our lives now.”

Paul also included photos of Vanessa with their bundle of joy.
One pic featured two lacrosse sticks. He wrote, “To your first cradle stick. It’ll hold many stories and blessings. Likely broken windows too. Balls are allowed in the house 🤍.”
Kirby hasn’t publicly commented on the baby’s arrival.
In July, “Extra” spoke with Vanessa at the L.A. premiere of “The Fantastic Four: First Steps,” where she touched on what her character Sue Storm taught her about motherhood.
She said, “The fact that I’m becoming a new mother, it’s so linked."
“You know, I spent half the movie in a pregnancy bump and now it's here on the carpet with it,” Vanessa added. “The boys don’t even look at me different because they’ve just known me as just that, you know? Now it just happens to be real."
