Krys Marshall stepped onto the 2026 Critics Choice Awards red carpet Sunday night with a surprise announcement: she’s expecting baby number two. The actress, whose series Paradise is up for Best Drama Series, debuted her baby bump in a champagne gown just two and a half years after welcoming her first child.
Red-Carpet Reveal
Marshall’s bump was on full display in a custom champagne dress featuring an embellished turtleneck and draped waistline. She paired the look with textured pointed-toe heels adorned with floral appliqués and David Yurman jewelry, her hair swept into a sleek bun.
The appearance marks only the second time she’s shared pregnancy news publicly; she announced her first pregnancy in March 2023 via a representative who told News Of Los Angeles the couple was “beyond thrilled to become parents.”
Private but Proud Parents
While Marshall and Ted Dolan keep family details under wraps, she has occasionally offered glimpses:
- June 2023: Posted “Safe and sound, Earth side” alongside photos of their newborn, whose name has never been shared
- October 21, 2025: Shared a sweet kiss with her child and a birthday celebration photo with Dolan
The couple’s low-key approach extends to major events; Marshall previously revealed she had to be sewn into her 2025 Emmys dress after the zipper ripped minutes before leaving home.
