Saoirse Ronan, aged 31, is widely recognized as one of the most talented actresses of her generation. She gained prominence in her early years starring in renowned movies like Atonement and The Lovely Bones.
Her exceptional talent was acknowledged with an Academy Award nomination at the age of 13 for her role in Atonement, and she has since earned three more Oscar nominations for her performances in Brooklyn, Lady Bird, and Little Women.
Despite her involvement in major film projects over the past decade, Ronan is known for maintaining a low profile in her personal life and seldom engages in social media activities.
Nevertheless, she is romantically linked with a popular actor who currently stars in a highly acclaimed streaming series of the 2020s.
The couple has reportedly achieved a significant milestone in their relationship, prompting curiosity about Ronan’s current life situation.
Jack Lowden, aged 35, is a Scottish actor renowned for his portrayal of MI5 agent River Cartwright in the Apple TV+ series Slow Horses.
He has been in a relationship with Ronan since 2018, their bond starting during their joint appearance in the historical drama film Mary Queen of Scots, which also featured Margot Robbie.
Lowden has showcased his acting prowess in various productions such as the BBC drama series The Gold, where he portrayed war poet Siegfried Sassoon in Benediction, and he recently appeared in the action film Tornado.
His upcoming role as Mr Darcy in the Netflix adaptation of Pride and Prejudice, scripted by Dolly Alderton, alongside Emma Corrin as Elizabeth Bennet, is highly anticipated.
In July 2024, The Irish Independent reported the marriage of Ronan and Lowden in Edinburgh.
News surfaced in May 2025 about Ronan’s pregnancy with their first child, apparent from her baby bump sighting in London. Although the couple did not officially confirm the news, Ronan later flaunted her bump at Paris Fashion Week in an elegant emerald-black gown.
Recent photos capturing the couple with a baby stroller suggest that they have welcomed their first child in a private manner, with details about the child remaining undisclosed.
The Daily Mail reported a slowdown in the production of Pride and Prejudice following Lowden’s new fatherhood status, necessitating the use of stand-ins for his character to ensure filming continuity.
Details regarding the name and gender of Ronan and Lowden’s child have not been disclosed publicly at this time.
Despite her personal life developments, Ronan continues to thrive in her film career. Her latest project, Bad Apples, premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival with an official release date pending confirmation.
Based on the book De Oönskade by Rasmus Andersson, the film features Ronan as Maria, a British teacher entangled in a tumultuous relationship with one of her students.
Critics at TIFF have praised the film, calling it a “deliciously dark comedy about the pressures of a broken school system” (IndieWire) and commending director Jonatan Etzler for his precise satire that reveals deeper truths about societal facades (The Wrap).
Following Bad Apples, Ronan is set to star opposite Austin Butler in the romance film Deep Cuts, set in the 2000s, produced by A24 and directed by Sean Durkin of The Iron Claw fame.
