Hilary Swank, 52, is expecting her third child, having previously detailed the unique benefits of welcoming children later in life, including enhanced patience, understanding, and a more established career.
Actress Hilary Swank, 52, recently announced her third pregnancy, months after sharing her perspective on the advantages of becoming a mother later in life. In a November 2025 interview with Women’s Health magazine, Swank described her 'different' experience raising her 3-year-old twins, Aya and Ohm, who were born when she was 48. She emphasized that she is 'much more patient,' 'much more understanding,' and 'more interested' in her children's development now than she would have been in her early 40s. Swank also highlighted that her already established career allows her to be a 'present' and 'hands-on parent' without being divided. The Oscar winner had previously frozen her eggs to alleviate pressure but clarified she didn't actively wait, rather it was the 'right time' at 47. She and her husband, Philip Schneider, announced their latest pregnancy via Instagram using glow sticks, with the baby expected in December. Swank and Schneider welcomed their twins in April 2023. Their relationship began in 2016, and they married in August 2018. Swank was previously married to Chad Lowe from 1997 to 2007.
