Alicia Vikander And Michael Fassbender Share Exciting Family News

Michael Fassbender and Alicia Vikander have maintained their privacy through the years, but the actress did reveal that the couple are now first-time parents! While promoting her new film "Blue Bayou," Vikander confirmed that she and Fassbender had welcomed their first child earlier this year. "I now have a whole new understanding of life in general," Vikander told People. "That's pretty beautiful, and obviously will give a lot to any of my work in the future."

Vikander didn't give any other details about her bundle of joy, and wants to keep her experience as a new mom to herself — at least for now. "No, I think I'll wait with that one," she said. "I'm enjoying finding it out in the moment right now, more than anything."

One thing Vikander is willing to talk about is the possibility of working with her husband again. "I would love to work with him one day, but we're very much individuals, which I love and I think is good in any relationship," she told Elle in 2020 (via Pink Villa). "We both take on parts because it's a film that is right for us, so it would have to be the same if we were ever to work together again."
