The other day, Elijah Wood wowed his fans. An interview with WSJ.Magazine revealed that the actor already had two children at home – a 3-year-old son and a 14-month-old daughter.
Previously, he had not only not announced the birth of his second child, but had not even mentioned his beloved, 42-year-old Mette-Marie Kongsved, was pregnant. Now, more than a year after the birth of his daughter, he decided to announce to the world that he had become a father again. He performs his fatherly duties with great pleasure, as Wood said. Getting up at night to feed the baby, while she was so small, was not difficult for him. Nevertheless, he still prepares breakfast for his children every morning, which he enjoys doing.
Elijah said that he does not consider himself to be at all a public person, which is why he hid the birth of his daughter for so long. He does not like the idea of sharing details of his personal life with everyone. Interestingly, when Evan was born, they also learned about this far from immediately, only after Mette-Marie was photographed without a protruding belly. As well, Wood’s romance with Kongsved, which began only two years earlier, was also discovered very late.
They met and fell in love on the set of the 2016 film I Don’t Feel at Home in This World Anymore. She was the producer of this project, and he played one of the main roles. In 2018, the actor and his beloved appeared together holding hands in Pasadena, revealing that they are a couple. It was also reported that Elijah got engaged to Mette-Marie, because a ring appeared on her hand, very similar to an engagement ring. His engagement, however, has not yet been confirmed by Wood.
