Barbra Streisand made a rare appearance to bless Anne Hathaway’s newly announced pregnancy.
“To Anne & Adam, Congratulations on your pregnancy!” Streisand, 84, wrote via Instagram on Friday, June 19, referring to Hathaway, 43, and her husband, Adam Shulman. “Mazel tov, Barbra xo.”
Streisand also uploaded a sweet photo of the two women posing for the camera, while the Funny Girl icon rested a hand on Hathaway’s belly.
Hathaway, who previously collaborated with Streisand on a 2016 cover of “At the Ballet” from A Chorus Line, announced earlier on Friday that she is expecting her third baby.
“Baby, I’m yours,” the Devil Wears Prada star captioned an Instagram video, in which she cradled her baby bump in a white sundress.
Hathaway and Shulman, 45, are already parents of sons Jonathan, 10, and Jack, 6.
“I love that being a boy mom has really informed my fashion,” Hathaway told People in an April interview. “I have to always be able to go from a serious business meeting to, like, a basketball court. You have to be able to play pickup basketball at any point, in any outfit. So [I tell myself]: When you get dressed in the morning, dress wisely because you 100 percent are going to have a projectile thrown at you probably by the end of breakfast.”
She continued, “Did you ever see the video about boy moms versus girl moms? Oh my gosh. It’s so funny. It’s like girl moms sit and they’re coloring with their daughter and they’re like, ‘What a beautiful piece of art?’ And it’s, like, so quiet. Boy moms, they’re like, ‘Where’s your weapons’ basket?’”
Even so, Hathaway loves raising her sons.
“I just feel very lucky. I know that not everybody who wants to be a parent gets to be,” she added. “I’m just blown away by how fortunate I am. It went really well for me twice, and that’s really lucky.”
Hathaway, who has not publicly revealed the sex of baby No. 3, previously suffered a miscarriage in 2015 while portraying a pregnant character in the off-Broadway production of Grounded.
“The first time it didn’t work out for me. I was doing a play and I had to give birth onstage every night,” she told Vanity Fair in March 2024. “It was too much to keep it in when I was onstage pretending everything was fine.”
“It’s really hard to want something so much and to wonder if you’re doing something wrong,” she acknowledged at the time.
