Laura Benanti

Laura Benanti, an American actress, and her husband, Patrick Brown, have announced the birth of their second child through surrogacy, bringing their family to four. On July 9, the 42-year-old actress shared photos of her newborn baby, Louisa Georgia Benanti-Brown, on Instagram. She added that the family had several problems as it grew and appreciated their “angel on earth” surrogate for “generosity of spirit, body, and compassion that can never be returned.” Ella, Laura and Benanti’s oldest daughter, is shown clutching her infant sister’s hand in the first photo. Ella may be seen smiling and staring toward the camera in the second photograph.

 

Patrick Brown and Laura Benanti have been happily married for many years.

The Younger actress and Patrick Brown married in November 2015, five months after they announced their engagement on Brown’s Instagram account. Brown, who uploaded a flurry of photos, began with a close-up of the couple’s engagement ring. Brown captioned a monochromatic photo of Laura shot from the side in another post:

“She married me today. I’m so thrilled! #GetDownWithMrAndMrsBrown.”

They got married in New York City at Harlem’s Riverside Church. Celebrities such as Jesse Tyler Ferguson and Connie Britton attended the wedding. The Supergirl actor was hesitant to upload photos from her wedding on social media, but she claimed that when her husband proposed to her, he stated, “never thinks less of you [Laura].” Laura Benanti told W magazine in 2016 that the event was highly romantic for her because she felt appreciated and noticed.

“It wasn’t my first time proposing, but it was his.”

Ella, the couple’s first child, was born on February 24, 2017. Benanti revealed the news to Entertainment Tonight, saying her child was “beautiful and, most importantly, healthy.” However, the couple’s first child was born two years after they had a miscarriage. She said in a March 2015 Huffington Post op-ed that she had wanted to be a mother for a long time and that finding out she was pregnant was the “happiest day of her life.” But then she got the awful news.

“Why don’t we speak about it more? After this occurred to me, I chatted with people I felt quite close to who had gone through the same thing and I had no idea. My goal is that talking about it in public will help in some tiny manner “‘

Laura Benanti was married twice before meeting Patrick Brown. In 2005, she married Chris Barron, the frontman of the rock band Spin Doctor. The relationship lasted a year. She married the actor Steven Pasquale in 2007. The couple was married for almost six years before divorcing in 2013.
