Michael Sheen Expecting Baby With 25-Year-Old Girlfriend Anna Lundberg
She's half his age.
Actor Michael Sheen, 50, took to social media this week to announce joyful news: his 25-year-old girlfriend, Anna Lundberg, is pregnant. In his tweet, he referenced his Amazon Prime miniseries Good Omens, saying: “Very happy to let everyone know that my partner Anna and I are expecting a little angel of our own. (Just to be clear — we’re having a baby!) #nottheantichrist." He finished off the tweet with a number of emojis including the flag of Sweden. The new bundle of joy will be Sheen's second child. He has a 20-year-old daughter Lily with ex Kate Beckinsale. This will be the first child for his girlfriend Anna Lundberg. Who is Anna Lundberg? New details on Michael Sheen's girlfriend and baby mama.
1. She's from Sweden
Anna Lundberg is a 25-year-old (as we mentioned) actress from Helsingborg, Sweden. She currently lives in New York City and recently completed a two-year program at the American Academy of Dramatic Arts there. She has a number of theater credits to her name, including Frau Gabor in Spring Awakening, Desdemona in Othello and Ani/Sasha/Callie in Gloria.
2. She studied in London
Lundberg also spent time in London studying at the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art. Perhaps this is where she learned to love British men, leading her to her English baby daddy, Sheen. According to her bio, Lundberg also spent three years in a theatre program in Sweden.
3. How did they meet?
Given their 25-year age difference, people wonder how these two lovebirds met. While there's no official word on how and when they met, the couple took their relationship public by Hollywood standards in May when Anna was Sheen's date to the premiere of his Amazon Prime show, Good Omens. This walk down the red carpet was just two months after Sheen split from 35-year-old comedienne Aisling Bea. So, let's say they started dating right after his breakup, that would mean they've been together for about four months now.
4. His past loves
Sheen's most high-profile relationship was with Kate Beckinsale, 45, who he dated from 1995 to 2003. They split after eight years of dating. They have a daughter, Lily. He also dated Sarah Silverman, 48, for four years from 2014 to early 2018. Silverman addressed the breakup in a tweet, saying: "We just live in different countries and it got hard. Felt we should just tell y'all so u stop askin, "How's Michael/How's Sarah?"
5. Babymoon
After announcing their happy news, the couple reportedly traveled to Sheen's native country of Wales to go on a glamping expedition. No word yet on whether the couple is expecting a boy or a girl or how far along she is but given that he broke up with Aisling Bea in March...Lundberg couldn't be more than four months along at the most.
6. Good Omens
The official Twitter account for Good Omens was quick to congratulate its star and his partner, saying: "Just don't let the @chattering_nuns deliver your little angel. Congratulations, @michaelsheen! #GoodOmens"
