Claire Danes and Hugh Dancy have another child on the way.

The actress is pregnant with baby number three, her rep revealed to People.

Danes, 43, and Dancy, 47, met while filming Evening in 2006.

The duo got engaged in February 2009. They wed in France in September of that same year.

The couple became parents when Cyrus, now 10, arrived in 2012. Their second son, Rowan, now 4, was born in 2018.

While Danes keeps her family life private, she did call working motherhood “amazing” in a 2014 interview with People, gushing that movie sets are a “great environment” for kids.

Prior to the Emmy winner’s relationship with Dancy, she dated Billy Crudup from 2003 to 2006.

Crudup, 54, was expecting a baby with Mary-Louise Parker when he met Danes while co-starring in Stage Beauty — and Danes has since reflected on the “consequences” of being the other woman.

“That was a scary thing,” the Homeland alum told Howard Stern in October 2015. “I didn’t know how not to do that. I was just in love with him and needed to explore that, and I was 24.

“But it’s OK,” Danes continued. “I went through it.”

As for Parker, the Weeds actress recalled being “pregnant and alone” in her Dear Mr. You memoir the following month.

After reflecting on “trying to get through” the break-up, she wrote, “I realise now that whatever I was walking through was part of my life, one piece of a bigger story that is mostly beautiful”.

Crudup, who has yet to speak on the infidelity, co-parents son William, 19, with the Golden Globe winner. He is currently dating Naomi Watts.
