Penn Badgley And Domino Kirke Twins Update
Penn Badgley, formerly Phillip Chancellor IV on The Young and the Restless, (2000-2001) and his wife, Domino Kirke, are expecting identical twins. The couple, who already share a son, confirmed the news that all goes well this week.
The News Arrived On ‘Tonight Show’
The couple appeared on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon and they broke the news about the twins about two months ago. The new babies will bring their blended family to four children. All them will be boys. Domino also has a son, Cassius, from a previous relationship. While the twins come later this summer, no due date was shared.
In an another interview with People, Badgley said, “We’re still processing it.” He added that having twins wasn’t something they anticipated, and the surprise has kept them focused on preparing for what’s to come.
Domino shared a few photos of her baby bump, and the latest one arrived on Instagram on Thursday this week. In her caption, she wrote, “Dumpity dump.” And it sure is a very large bump. Fans who reacted could see that these babies seem ready to pop out anytime now.
One fan wrote, “Look at this queen!!!” And another one said, “where have I been you are expecting twins????? You look incredible.”
Here are a few more reactions:
- Twins look good on you.
- Both are beautiful! Love u guys hopefully everything is okay with the twins.
- the belly is bellying. you look lovely!
- Praying for a safe delivery for you.
- Awww double love.
The Social Media Posts
The couple married in 2017 and tend to keep their personal life off social media. Badgley rarely posts about his family and spoke in past interviews about maintaining privacy. He told People, “We’ve chosen to keep that part of our life sacred.”
Many of Penn Badgley and Domino Kirke’s fans remember that the couple experienced a miscarriage before welcoming their first child together in 2020. Domino wrote about that loss, saying it shaped how she approached her next pregnancy.
A Smooth Pregnancy
This time, however, all signs point to a smooth and healthy experience. She’s kept working, posting updates for her doula clients and sharing insights on motherhood without going too public. It’s been a low-key approach that reflects how both she and Badgley handle fame.
Penn’s show, You, wrapped its fifth and final season earlier this year. With production behind him, the timing for the twins seems to line up with a quieter phase for him, as no new acting projects have been announced.
In Hollywood, twin pregnancies always draw attention, so there will be a lot of eyes on their growing family. But don’t expect all the fanfare to come from this Hollywood couple. They seem to like to play things down a bit for their peace of mind.
