Josh Duhamel and Audra Mari Pregnant with Baby No. 2: ‘Adding a Little Girl to Our Story’

On Thursday, March 5 evening, the 32-year-old former Miss World America used social media to announce that she was pregnant with her second child with the Ransom Canyon star, 53.

“Adding a little girl to our story.. We can’t wait to meet you,” she captioned an Instagram carousel filled with black and white photos of her showing her baby bump.

In the first image, Mari sat in a bed, with her legs crossed, wearing a half-buttoned top with her stomach exposed as she sweetly smiled at the camera. A second image showed her beaming as she looked down to cradle her belly.

The Transformers star and Mari, who have been married since 2022, are also mom and dad to son Shepherd Lawrence Duhamel, whom they welcomed on Jan. 11, 2024.

They announced the news a week later, sharing a black and white photo of their newborn baby’s feet to Instagram in a joint post with his name and birthdate as the caption, along with a white heart emoji.

Duhamel is also a dad to son Axl Jack Duhamel, 12, whom he shares with his ex-wife, Fergie.

In August 2025, the Life As We Know It actor spoke exclusively to PEOPLE about being a father to two sons, and also opened up about whether or not he wanted a daughter.

“I just love being a dad. I love every single milestone,” he said.

At the time, the now soon-to-be father of three admitted that his two sons were quite different from one another and unique in their own ways.

“My wife’s father is a big car guy and a collector of cars, and I think that Shepherd is very much like his grandfather,” Duhamel told PEOPLE. “He just loves cars, … and all he wants to do is get up in the seat and just pretend like he’s driving. Even if it’s a little tricycle, he wants to get in there and pretend.”

Axl, on the other hand, “doesn’t really care so much” about cars, according to his famous dad, who said his eldest was fond of sports.

“He’s more about soccer and basketball stats,” he continued. “But that’s the beauty of genetics. They all come out a little bit different.”

Before the interview ended, Duhamel praised Mari, calling her “a great mom.”

“She’s a great role model, and hopefully we have another one. Hopefully a girl, maybe another boy. We’ll see,” he told PEOPLE.
