Oscar-winning actress Hilary Swank, 52, has announced she is expecting her third child with husband Philip Schneider. The news came in an Instagram video posted Wednesday, showing Swank, Schneider, and their 3-year-old twins, Aya and Ohm, dancing in the dark with glow sticks attached to their bodies. The video playfully outlines Swank’s growing belly with a baby shape formed by glow sticks, and she captioned it, "A lot of people have been asking what project I’m doing next, this one releases in December," appearing to hint at her due date.
Swank and Schneider married in 2018 and welcomed their twins in April 2023 when Swank was 48 years old. At the time, she shared her journey to motherhood on social media, writing, "It wasn’t easy. But boy (and girl!) was it worth it," alongside a photo of herself holding the newborns. She had previously announced her twin pregnancy during an October 2022 appearance on *Good Morning America*, expressing her excitement about becoming a first-time mom later in life.
The actress has since spoken candidly about motherhood, particularly its challenges and joys. In a 2025 interview with *Women’s Health*, Swank stated that she views the post-pregnancy period as a transition to a new version of herself, saying, "For me, it’s not about bouncing back to our pre-baby bodies but rather bouncing forward into our new bodies and selves."
Swank, best known for her roles in *Million Dollar Baby* and *Boys Don’t Cry*, has not yet made further public comments on the pregnancy announcement. ABC News has reached out to her representatives for additional details.
