The announcement comes two years after the couple welcomed a son, Leo, in February 2020. The pair almost chose a different name for their firstborn due to Tarantino’s relationship with another famous Leo.

“We almost didn’t name him [Leo] because people would assume that I named him after Leonardo DiCaprio,” Tarantino revealed on Jimmy Kimmel Live! in June 2021.

“There’s nothing wrong with that but I didn’t. He’s named after my wife’s grandfather, but also because, just in our hearts, he was our little lion.”

He later explained how emotional he’s become since becoming a dad, welling up as he discussed his son with CBS Sunday Morning last July.

“If I talk about it too much, I’m already going to start crying if I talk about it too,” Tarantino said at the time when asked about fatherhood.

“I can’t even see his name written on a piece of paper without crying. It’s just, he’s my little Leo. He’s my little lion. And I just see his name, L-E-O written down isolated. And it just, when it comes to him, he’s just the most charming human being I’ve ever met in my life.”
