“What’s better than two Taylor Lautners?” they wrote, a caption that quickly drew attention online for what many see as a hint about the baby’s name.

Lautner, best known for his role in Twilight, married Tay in November 2022 after first going public with their relationship in 2018.

He proposed in 2021 with a candlelit setup surrounded by rose petals, before the couple tied the knot in California the following year.

The actor has previously said he met Tay during a break from acting, a period he used to step back from the spotlight and focus on his personal life.

Since then, the couple have shared glimpses of their relationship with fans, from their engagement to their wedding and now the announcement of their first child.

The pregnancy news has been widely welcomed online, with fans reacting not just to the announcement, but also to the couple’s playful caption, which has fuelled speculation about what they might name their baby.
