Krys Marshall just announced her second pregnancy in the most glamorous way possible. The Paradise actress walked the 31st Critics' Choice Awards red carpet, showing off her baby bump in a gorgeous Sehnsucht gown. Krys and her husband, Ted Dolan, welcomed their first child in June 2023.

While Krys Marshall has not revealed the name of her son, it does not stop her from talking about him. During an exclusive interview with PEOPLE on the 31st Critics' Choice Awards red carpet, Marshall shared how her son reacted to the fact that he is becoming a big brother soon.

She said:

"He is so excited about becoming a big brother... He's very attached to the new baby and talking to the new baby, and it's wild, and hopefully it stays that way once the baby arrives, but he is just the greatest little champion of his new sibling."

Krys Marshall opens up about second pregnancy

Before Krys Marshall walked the 31st Critics' Choice Awards red carpet last Sunday, the public did not really know that the Supergirl actress was pregnant. Marshall explained how her dress for the night was deliberately chosen to make the announcement and to highlight the beauty of being a woman.

In her words:

"I am wearing a German designer called Sehnsucht, and I wanted to wear something that felt celebratory of womanhood in this kind of crazy time where your body is sort of not your own... It was also important to me that I did something that felt sort of subdural and kind of formal. Most of all, I feel comfortable, thank God."

The champagne-colored Sehnsucht dress had a sequinned turtleneck top with a skirt draped to enhance Marshall's baby bump. She paired the dress with matching champagne heels with floral embellishments. She kept her hair simple in a sleek bun with studs and a ring for accessories.

When asked about her pregnancy, Krys Marshall said that she feels quite comfortable with her second child, since she already had some experience with her son. She said:

"Overall, I'm feeling really good. This is our second baby, so it's kind of like old hat, I'm familiar with it... I just feel so blessed — baby is healthy, I'm healthy, and I'm excited for this next little chapter."

Krys knows whether she is having a boy or a girl, but chooses not to share that information with the public just yet. Marshall and her husband have successfully kept their son out of the spotlight after two years, so much so that his name is still not revealed. There is a high possibility that they will do the same with their second child.
