A Quick Romance That Led to Forever
Justin Theroux first laid eyes on Nicole Brydon Bloom at a Netflix event in New York City in February 2023. He was so impressed that he pointed her out to a friend, who told him ‘She is the one.’ In an interview with Vogue, Theroux recalled that his friend turned to him and literally said those exact words. He then asked his friend to collect her name since he hadn’t gotten it himself.
By August 2023, the couple was photographed kissing during a date. Theroux proposed in Italy in August 2024, presenting Bloom with a stunning 4-carat emerald cut diamond ring with a band featuring both of their birthstones. The pair married in a private ceremony on March 15, 2025, at Hotel Esencia in Xpu Há, Mexico, with a three-day celebration.
Pregnancy Journey and Trimester Updates
The couple announced they were expecting their first child together in December 2025 through PEOPLE magazine. Bloom has already shown her growing baby bump on the red carpet at the 2026 Critics Choice Awards in January. At that event, she discussed how the first trimester affected her physically. ‘I feel good. I was sick in the first trimester, so that was a bummer, but the second trimester has been going really well,’ she shared.
Bloom emphasized her gratitude throughout the pregnancy journey. ‘I feel very lucky and grateful for that,’ she told PEOPLE at the awards ceremony. The nursery is coming together nicely, and the couple recently celebrated with an intimate baby shower at Jac’s on Bond in New York City. A source described the gathering as ‘perfect’ and noted that both Theroux and Bloom seemed genuinely happy and excited.

Building Their Life Together in Privacy
Theroux has always been protective of his personal relationships. In a 2023 interview with Esquire, he stated, ‘I want all of my relationships to exist within the four walls of whatever room we’re in.’ Despite being photographed together at multiple Hollywood events, the couple has kept their romance remarkably private compared to typical celebrity relationships.
The actor previously was married to Jennifer Aniston from 2015 until their split in 2018. This marriage to Bloom marks his second time at the altar. For Bloom, a talented actress known for roles in The Gilded Age and Paradise, this is her first marriage. Together, they’ve been building a quiet life away from the spotlight, focusing on their work and now preparing to welcome their child.
What Does the Future Hold for the Young Family?
With a baby on the way and an intimate baby shower already celebrated, Justin Theroux and Nicole Brydon Bloom are embracing parenthood with gratitude and humor. Bloom continues her acting career, recently appearing in season two of Paradise on Hulu. The couple’s journey from a chance meeting at a Netflix event to married life with a baby on the way feels like a modern love story.
As they prepare for their child’s arrival later in 2026, the couple seems ready to handle the joys and challenges of new parenthood together. Their playful dynamic, shown in how Bloom described telling Theroux about the pregnancy, suggests they’ll approach this exciting chapter with the same humor and connection that has defined their relationship. Will they keep their family life as private as possible, or will fans get glimpses of their life as new parents?
