Swank, 52, Reveals Backlash to Pregnancy at Older Age

Swank says women face a double standard over later motherhood after a viewer criticized her age and she noted men are not judged the same way.

  • Actress Hilary Swank debuted her baby bump on October 15 while leaving The Drew Barrymore Show in New York City, one day after announcing her third pregnancy with husband Philip Schneider via Instagram.
  • Swank and Schneider already share three-year-old twins, son Ohm and daughter Aya, born in 2023. The 52-year-old Million Dollar Baby star has been candid about her decision to have children later in life.
  • Describing her parenting approach, Swank admitted, "I am much more interested in a different way than I would've been." She emphasized her established career allows her to be "a hands-on parent."
  • Reflecting on family travel, Swank joked about the "reality of traveling with twin toddlers" after experiencing "24 hours of travel with 2 babies who refuse to sleep on planes" during an August 2024 trip to Fiji.
  • Due to give birth at year's end, Swank recently shared a fun video of her soon-to-be crew of five dancing in glowing stick figure costumes, celebrating the expanding family.
