Julian Assange and his wife, Stella, announce they are expecting their third child. Assange shares the news in a rare personal post after his return to Australia, and multiple outlets report that the announcement is accompanied by a photo of the couple.
The reports describe Assange, 55, and Stella as parents to two children, Gabriel and Max. They also note that Assange has largely kept a low profile since returning to Australia about two years ago, following his release from jail in 2024.
While the outlets largely agree on the pregnancy announcement itself and the couple’s existing family, they differ mainly in emphasis. Some focus on the rarity and personal nature of Assange’s post, while others foreground the age of Assange and the timeline of his release and low public profile.
