Elijah Wood recently let it slip that he's now a father of two! In his 'My Monday Morning' profile for the Wall Street Journal, the 'Yellowjackets' actor was asked what time he starts his day, and Wood shared that he gets an early start with his two little ones—marking the first time he has stated that he and partner Mette-Marie Kongsved have two children. "We've got a 3-year-old son and a 14-month-old daughter, and she wakes us up pretty early. I like getting up early, I like starting the day," he shared.
Wood also spoke on his private nature in the interview, including his private Instagram account. "I wanted to be able to share photos that I didn't necessarily want to share with the world," the 'Lord of the Rings' alum explained. "An account that's public-facing would really change what I share." He added, "It's not like I'm sharing anything that I wouldn't want to go out, but I'm a relatively private person."
When it comes to the press, it's hard for celebrities to keep anything secret, let alone the imminent arrival of a child. Yet it's important to lots of celebrities that their children have privacy and that they are shown respect when it comes to their private lives and family home.
Check out this gallery to see which other celebrities managed to dodge the media in the run-up to their kids' arrival, many of whom didn't have the privacy of a pandemic!
