Stars Who Welcomed Babies Over Age 40: Michelle Kwan and More

While some celebrities get started growing their families early on, these stars waited to have children until later in life.
Alanis Morissette, for example, announced in March 2019 that she was expecting her third child at age 44. The “Ironic” singer, who married rapper Mario “Souleye” Treadway in 2010, posted a baby bump pic to social media with the caption, “So much NEWness.”
Brigitte Nielsen was 54 when she announced in May 2018 that she and her husband, Mattia Dessi, had her fifth baby on the way. Claire Danes, meanwhile, welcomed her third child with husband Hugh Dancy in July 2023 when she was 44 years old.
Michelle Kwan announced in December 2025 that she had welcomed her second baby at the age of 45.
