A new one. I'm not a fan of the buzz cut but this photo is sweet.

Yes, this is lovely, a real classic. And the hair will grow as soon as filming is completed.

Beautiful...
I know there is still no official announcement, but so excited about the impending new baby batch.

**Posted by SusiGo** September 4, 2018 4:00 pm

Yes, she looks radiant. They both seem very happy with their growing family.

Oh, is Sophie expecting again? I'm behind on my Benformation! How lovely! (And, yeah, I don't like that hairstyle either).

**Posted by besleybean** September 6, 2018 8:08 pm

Well as I said, still no official announcement: but In Venice, she looked very pregnant.

I am quite hopeful that he will grow his hair once "Ironbark" filming is over. And while it has not been officially confirmed that they are expecting their third child, Sophie looked quite pregnant in Venice.

I guess none of the photos I have seen were very clear about whether she looked pregnant or not (though to be honest I have only seen a few on Tumblr by chance).

Good Lord, you couldn't miss it in Venice!
Could even be a Xmas baby!

Gorgeous.

Maybe it's just the dress, but why wearing such a dress then.

**Posted by besleybean** September 17, 2018 7:32 pm

Oh she's definitely pregnant...
No official announcement as yet, but it could even be a Christmas baby.

Lovely couple. And depending on the perspective she really looks pregnant.

Baby no. 3 has now been officially confirmed.

Congratulations!

See people keep citing this as an official announcement...
Just a news story as far as I can see.
I mean she obviously is, but you know...not heard it from Benedict's lips yet!

**Posted by Ivy** September 18, 2018 7:43 pm

I hope it's a girl this time

**Posted by besleybean** September 18, 2018 7:45 pm

I've been rowing with fan girls all day about this!

Well, I would hope that Benedict is progressive enough (he certainly seems to be someone who is critical of gender roles and sexism, supports feminism) not to raise his children in harmful stereotypical ways based on their assigned gender at birth.
