Twilight’ Star Robert Pattinson, 37, Spotted Handling Daddy Duties with a Pink Stroller for the First Time Ever
Beloved Hollywood couple Robert Pattinson and Suki Waterhouse step into a new chapter with the arrival of their first child. The new parents showcased a blend of style and tenderness while out on a family walk with their baby for the first time. Fans and followers were buzzing with excitement, offering an outpouring of love and support for their favorite stars' latest journey.
In a moment that seems lifted from the pages of a fairy tale, Robert Pattinson, the cherished actor best known for his roles in "Twilight" and "The Batman," was recently seen leaning into his daddy duties. The streets of LA became the backdrop for an intimate family scene, as Robert, 37, and his fiancée, Suki Waterhouse, 32, took their first public outing with their newborn, who was nestled in a light pink stroller.
This outing confirmed the joyful arrival of their first child together, a milestone that has captivated fans and onlookers alike. For their family stroll, Suki exuded casual elegance in a long black coat, white cap, and shades, while Robert donned a simple, yet stylish ensemble that included a grey hoodie, a puffer jacket, black shorts, a cap, and sunglasses.
The couple—joined by Suki's mother, Elizabeth Waterhouse, whose bright pink jumper added a splash of color to the family's sweet promenade—painted a picture of serene familial happiness. Suki and Robert's journey to parenthood has been marked by anticipation, joy, and a deep sense of privacy.
Since their connection was first made public in 2018, the pair have navigated their relationship with care, keeping the spotlight away from their most personal moments. The confirmation of their baby's arrival comes after Suki playfully revealed her pregnancy at the Corona Capital Festival in Mexico City last November.

Reflecting on their relationship during an interview she sat down for last year, Suki briefly spoke about the profound connection she and Robert share. During the conversation, the "To Love" singer divulged how they make time to see each other despite their busy schedules, stating, “I had two days off the other day, and it was like, no question I’m going back to see him. Then he’ll come out for a couple of days.”

This mutual dedication has been a cornerstone of their relationship, which has surprised even Suki with its depth: “I’m shocked that I’m so happy with someone for nearly five years.” She also discussed getting advice and support from Robert Pattinson, especially where her career is concerned, citing, “I’ll try and get him to help me with an audition before he falls asleep on the sofa.”

When it comes to revealing facets of his life, Robert, on the other hand, has been notably reserved about their relationship and dating in general. In a 2019 interview, he articulated his philosophy on privacy within relationships, explaining, “If you let people in, it devalues what love is [...] The line between when you're performing and when you're not will eventually get washed away and you'll go completely mad.”

This perspective sheds light on his approach to maintaining a boundary between his public persona and his private life, which is especially poignant given his past romantic experiences, like when he was dating famous actress and fellow "Twilight" co-star Kristen Stewart. Despite past romance challenges, Robert believes in the resilience of love and has proved that a relationship can flourish under the spotlight, provided it's shielded with respect and understanding.

As the happy couple embarks on the journey of becoming parents, their story is a testament to the balance of love, privacy, and the shared moments that define a family. Their transition into parenthood—recently witnessed on the streets of LA—speaks to a deeper narrative of love that thrives in both the quiet and the chaos, a love that is as genuine as it is guarded, and as public as it is profoundly personal.
As we previously reported on November 20, 2023, Suki had first revealed that she was pregnant with her and Robert's baby while on stage performing at the Corona Capital Music Festival in Mexico City.

Robert Pattinson and Suki Waterhouse were first linked in 2018 but have kept their relationship private ever since. Pattinson's relationship with Waterhouse was his first since ending his engagement to singer F.K.A. Twigs in 2017.
Waterhouse had also been in relationships previously, which were public. The singer was linked to director Darren Aronofsky in early 2018. She also dated Bradley Cooper until their breakup in 2015 and Diego Luna until 2017.

After their previous relationships, Pattinson and Waterhouse linked up. A source told People in July 2018 that the pair were dating. In the same month, Pattinson and his girlfriend were seen at a nighttime screening of "Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again." The duo ended the night with drinks at SoHo House in Notting Hill.
Fans online have congratulated the singer on her pregnancy.

In December 2022, Pattinson and Waterhouse became red carpet-official when they attended the Dior Men Fall 2023 show in Giza, Egypt, together. The couple walked arm-in-arm, posed for photos, and looked at each other lovingly.

Ever since their relationship went public, the two have discussed their love only a handful of times. Pattinson said letting people into their relationship would devalue their love, but putting up a wall ensures it ends better.
Now, Pattinson and Waterhouse are parents-to-be. The singer revealed she was expecting her first child on November 19, 2023. She showed off her belly while on stage at the Corona Capital Music Festival in Mexico City. In a video shared on X, Waterhouse announced amidst cheers from fans:
"I decided to wear something sparkly today because I thought it might distract you from something else going on. I'm not sure if it's working."

The 31-year-old and the "Batman" star have been together for five years and are about to begin their parenthood journey. However, Waterhouse didn't mention the 37-year-old's name on stage. Still, fans online have congratulated the singer on her pregnancy.
A fan said only Waterhouse could announce her pregnancy in such a unique way." Obsessed with her baby bump," a fan wrote, while another commended "The Twilight Saga" actor, "Congratulations to one of the best actors of our generation."
Pattinson and Waterhouse have spoken lovingly about each other in the rare times they have opened up about their relationship. The actor was happy that Waterhouse watched "The Batman" with him as much as she is not into superhero movies.

The couple cherish each other and will now welcome a new person to share in their love. Pattinson hasn't spoken out about the pregnancy, but as the two enjoy their privacy, the pregnancy journey is expected to be lowkey.
