Rodriguez and LoCicero, 38, who welcomed son Charlie in 2023, smiled as they cradled the 'Will Trent' star's stomach.
The couple's news comes six years after they tied the knot in 2019. Rodriguez and LoCicero first met in 2016 when the actor played a stripper during season two of 'Jane the Virgin.'
However, the two didn't get together until after their initial episode.

'It was the boxing gym that brought [us] together,' the CW star said while on 'The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon' in 2019.
Turns out, when Rodriguez and LoCicero met a second time, she didn't even recognize him.
'He came in through the door and I was like, 'Good God!' and I fell into his eyeballs,' she gushed to Bust Magazine in 2017. 'On the fourth day [that we saw each other at the gym], he asked me out, and I have been dating him ever since. Now I know what it means to date your best friend.'

Both stars have kept their romance largely private over the years.
While talking to Cosmopolitan in 2019, Rodriguez opened up about what makes their relationship different.
She admitted that dating the 'Bold and the Beautiful' actor was a 'new experience for me because I put myself first.'

'For so long, I put every man in front of me,' Rodriguez explained. 'As a successful woman, it's so hard because of our cultural norms that, like, the man has to be the breadwinner! And the man has to be the more powerful one. It was so difficult for me to find a man who didn't want me to dim my light for his ego.'
In 2022, LoCicero sweetly celebrated the news of becoming a father for the first time.
'The love of my life is now carrying the new love of my life inside of her!' he captioned an Instagram video of spiritual guru Sadhguru talking about kids. 'I am exploding with joy every minute of the day. I could not be more excited for this incredible responsibility! #pregnant.'

On his first Father's Day, Rodriguez praised her partner-in-crime.
'I knew it when I met you that I found a man like no other,' she penned on Instagram beneath a series of family photos. 'When I walked down the aisle and you cried tears of joy, I knew I found someone extra special. I knew a great man would make a great dad.'
The 'Not Dead Yet' alum has also shared glimpses of Charlie in small doses since his birth.

'I wanna post everything about him but I limit it,' Rodriguez confessed to People in January. 'I know at some point I'm gonna have to stop because it's his life, but I'm just so in love.'
'His communication is unbelievable,' she said about her toddler, 'and I'm so grateful for it because he communicates what he wants, what he needs, his boundaries—he's teaching me boundaries!'

You star Anna Camp reveals Emmy Awards frustration after nominations snub
Anna Camp is frustrated after being snubbed for the 2025 Primetime Emmy Awards. The 42-year-old actress played identical twins Raegan and Maddie Lockwood in the fifth and final season of You on Netflix, and despite giving "one of the best performances" of her life, she wasn't included in the nominations on Tuesday (15.07.25). After the nominees were announced, she shared a photo on Instagram of her You character reading her phone looking confused. She captioned the picture on Instagram: "Me reading about the nominations this morning knowing I gave one of the best performances of my life while also trying to be happy for everyone and while also remembering I vowed to stop drinking during the week." She then took to her Story and shared two comments offering words of support. The first read: "You were [fire]... snubs are for scrubs. I'll down one [drink] for you." And another wrote: "I would get s***faced if I wasn't nominated for this performance." Anna added over the screenshot: "I love my followers." Meanwhile, her girlfriend Jade Whipkey praised her partner's performance on the show. She wrote: "BLOWN AWAY. not many people ever get the chance to play twins and NO ONE has ever done it like you did. Take notes Hollywood !!! (sic)" Anna would likely have been eligible for the Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama category. Instead, the shortlist featured Severance actress Particia Arquette, Paradise star Julianne Nicholson, The Pitt's Katherine LaNasa, and The White Lotus trio Aimee Lou Wood, Carrie Coon, Parker Posey and Natasha Rothwell. You wasn't nominated in any categories, and didn't receive a single Emmy nod during its entire run. The psychological thriller series starred Penn Badgley as obsessive serial killer Joe Goldberg. Camp joined the cast for the fifth and final season as twins Reagan and Maddie, who were the sisters of Kate Lockwood, played by Charlotte Ritchie in seasons four and five.

I'm binging Netflix's Trainwreck documentaries like there's no tomorrow, but Balloon Boy could be too much to bear
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. It's good news for those of us binging the hit Netflix documentary series Trainwreck like there's no tomorrow – new installment Balloon Boy hits screens on July 15. The new unbelievable story made national headlines back in 2009, but has flown under the radar ever since. Since 2022, Trainwreck has brought multiple disturbing stories back into the public eye, with Woodstock '99, The Astroworld Tragedy and The Cult of American Apparel being among them. Of course, we can't leave the infamous Poop Cruise out, either. Think less serious true crime series and more fly-on-the-wall stuffed with personality documentary The Real Project X is still storming Netflix's top 10 chart since being released on July 8 but Balloon Boy is a surefire bet to leave you open-mouthed, even if you're familiar with the case details. Unlike deranged parties or people having to poop in red biohazard bags on their four-day trip to Mexico, Balloon Boy is a heart-stopping drama from beginning to end. Given the nickname by the press, Balloon Boy actually refers to six-year-old Falcon, who was allegedly trapped in a homemade gas balloon resembling a flying saucer when it was released above Fort Collins, Colorado. Parents Richard and Mayumi Heene told the authorities while the balloon was on its 90-minute flight, reaching heights of 7,000 feet. By the time anyone could get to the balloon, it had landed a few miles away from Denver International Airport, and there was no Falcon to be seen. When the balloon was being tracked in the air, an object supposedly fell during its flight, prompting everyone watching to think the worst. A search was quickly underway with international media flocking to cover the alleged tragedy. Here's the twist – Falcon was never in the balloon at all. Instead, he'd been hiding in the attic of the family's house the entire time, revealing during a Larry King Live interview that his parents had told him they'd done it 'for show'. News of the publicity stunt soon went viral, with local sheriffs confirming the Heenes would face felony charges for the hoax. Richard Heene pleaded guilty to attempting to influence a public servant and was sentenced to 90 days in jail and ordered to pay $36,000 in restitution, with Mayumi Heene sentenced to 20 days of weekend jail. So why do we need to see the Netflix series if the story was so well reported at the time? For one reason: Balloon Boy is the first time we're getting an in-depth look at the full story from the family's point of view. We're getting sit-down interviews with them all, including the now grown up Falcon, who still seems pleased that he was once at the centre of a national news storm as a little it all an intention ploy, or did a family joke just get way out of hand? Based on the news reports, you could argue both ways, but I can't wait to get the inside story straight from the source. If you're wondering what to stream this week, make it this as it has the potential to be one of the best Netflix shows. Squid Game: The Challenge season 3 is a win for Netflix, but one unhinged game from the K-drama can't be replicated Virgin River season 8 gets early renewal from Netflix, and this season 6 cliffhanger could be a sneaky red herring New Netflix movies: every original film you can watch on the best streaming service in July 2025
