Michael Fassbender and Alicia Vikander
Back in early August, the press reported that 32-year-old Alicia Vikander and 44-year-old Michael Fassbender became parents. Soon after that, the paparazzi managed to take the first photos of celebrities with the baby. But Alicia and Michael themselves only once again confirmed the status of the most closed Hollywood couple and did not comment on this news in any way. But in a new interview for People, Vikander finally broke the silence: she officially confirmed the appearance of the child and spoke about motherhood for the first time.
Michael Fassbender and Alicia Vikander
Now I have a completely new understanding of life in general. This is wonderful, and obviously, a lot will be useful to me in my work in the future,
– said the star of the movie “Tomb Raider: Lara Croft”.
The actress added that she feels “more contented and happier than ever.” But Alicia has not yet been able to formulate an answer to the question of how the appearance of a child changed her life.
No, I'll wait with that. I like to know this right now more than anything else
Vikander said.
We will remind, Michael and Alicia tied the knot in October 2017 – three years after they started dating. The acquaintance took place on the set of the film “Light Between the Oceans”, where Michael and Alicia played husband and wife. Now the actors live in Lisbon (Portugal).
In August of this year, the first pictures of a couple with a child got into the press: the paparazzi managed to catch them in Ibiza, and then in Paris.
Vikander and Fassbender are known for being secretive about their personal lives. They rarely bring up this topic in interviews. Although in 2017, Alicia opened up and admitted that she dreams of children.
I've always wanted children. I have never been pregnant, but I hope to have a family someday,
– said the actress then.
