Taylor Lautner and his wife, Tay Lautner, revealed on June 7 in an Instagram video that their first child together will be a girl — a moment that left the couple screaming and crying on camera. The post cut to the word GIRL in pink letters; Tay sobbed into her hands while Lautner wrapped his arms around her and kissed her forehead, and the couple captioned the clip, "Our little secret is now yours."
The reveal follows the pair’s pregnancy announcement on March 26 and comes after a recent conversation in which Tay described how Lautner has been steadying her through the pregnancy. She praised him as her saving grace, saying he’s been running errands, picking up random food and even refilling her water with ice 27 times a day — small, constant gestures she pointed to as proof she had married someone who would be a good father.
On film the emotion was plain: the tandem scream when GIRL appears, the quiet tears, the forehead kiss that followed. Those moments turned the sex-reveal into more than a PR milestone; they presented the private relief and joy the couple had chosen to keep under wraps until June 7.
That secrecy was deliberate. The couple kept the baby’s sex private until the pink-letter reveal, even though they had told followers they were expecting in late March. The decision to wait gave the Instagram video an element of surprise that amplified the reaction — and made the clip the latest public confirmation of the family milestone the pair began sharing earlier this year.
Context: Lautner and Tay first went public as a couple on Instagram on Halloween, and he met her through his sister Makena Moore. The two tied the knot in 2022 and have steadily opened up about their relationship in short, candid moments — from light-hearted quips to the more tender on-camera reaction viewers watched on June 7.
The reveal answers the question everyone had been wondering since the March announcement — it’s a girl — but it leaves one basic detail unresolved: the baby’s due date. The couple has not disclosed any timing for the birth or further pregnancy logistics, so the next concrete update to expect from the Lautners is either another personal post from them or the eventual birth announcement.
