The emotional year is likely in reference to the death of Aubrey‘s husband Jeff Baena, who passed away in January 2025. It was later reported that the couple had separated in September 2024.
Aubrey and Christopher have known each other for years. They first worked together in summer 2019 on the indie movie Black Bear and then took the film to the Sundance Film Festival in January 2020.
The actors later worked together on the off-Broadway play Danny and the Deep Blue Sea, which ran performances from October 2023 to January 2024. All of their previous red carpet appearances are from those two projects.
Aubrey was most recently spotted at Paris Fashion Week one month ago, where she kept her baby bump covered up in a bulky coat.
Christopher is currently starring on Broadway in the play Death of a Salesman and he was most recently seen on the big screen in Wolf Man. His upcoming TV series East of Eden will be released on Netflix this year.
Congrats to the happy couple!
