Aubrey Plaza and Christopher Abbott Are Parents to a Baby Daughter

This marks the first child for the couple.

The Story

Aubrey Plaza and Christopher Abbott have become first-time parents.

The couple reportedly welcomed a baby daughter in late July, according to reports. TMZ posted photos of the actress carrying a baby in New York after seeing Death of a Salesman on Sunday, which marked Abbott’s last performance.

Abbott played Biff Loman in the Broadway revival of Arthur Miller’s classic play opposite Nathan Lane and Laurie Metcalf; he earned his first Tony Award nomination for the role, and they attended the ceremony as a couple (see photo above).

Plaza, meanwhile, earned an Emmy nom for best supporting actress in a drama series for her role in The White Lotus in 2023. She also was the co-creator of Prime Videos animated series Kevin. Her other credits include Agatha All Along and Parks and Recreation.

News first surfaced in April that Plaza was pregnant with her first child. The couple have worked together previously, in the 2020 movie Black Bear as well as in the off-Broadway play Danny and the Deep Blue Sea.

She was previously married to writer-director Jeff Baena (Life After Beth), who died by suicide in January 2025.
