In July, the couple announced they were expecting their first baby together, sharing a joint Instagram post. The former Moulin Rouge! costars posed for a selfie on the beach, both cradling Yang's baby bump and sharing a kiss.

The actor kept it simple in the caption, writing, "Table for 3 🤍."

Tveit and Yang first sparked dating rumors when they costarred in Broadway’s Moulin Rouge! but didn’t go public with their relationship until years later, when the new dad wished her a happy birthday in May 2021.

“My favorite picture of you. My favorite smile,” he captioned a photo of Yang laughing as he kissed her on the cheek. “Happy Birthday @erickahunter I love you!”

The two then made their red carpet debut as a couple in September 2021 at the Tony Awards, where Tveit won best performance by an actor in a leading role in a musical for Moulin Rouge!.
