Aubrey Plaza made a striking red carpet appearance at the 79th Annual Tony Awards in New York City, where she was joined by partner Christopher Abbott in a rare public outing that also marked their first official red carpet appearance together. The actress appeared visibly radiant as she showcased her growing baby bump in an elegant maternity look.
Plaza, best known for her role in Parks and Recreation, attended the event in support of Abbott, who was recognized for his performance as Biff Loman in Arthur Miller’s Death of a Salesman. The couple shared affectionate moments on the carpet, drawing attention for their coordinated presence and warm chemistry.
The pair, who revealed they were expecting their first child earlier in the year, have largely kept their relationship private since first working together on the 2020 film Black Bear and later co-starring in the off-Broadway production Danny and the Deep Blue Sea during 2023–2024.
For the occasion, Plaza wore a floor-length black Chanel maternity gown featuring delicate white vertical striping and thin straps, paired with minimal jewelry and understated burgundy nail styling. Abbott complemented her look in a classic black velvet tuxedo with cropped trousers, black boots, a slim tie, and a white pocket square.
Their public appearance comes after a difficult period in Plaza’s personal life, following the passing of her estranged husband, filmmaker Jeff Baena, earlier in 2025. The actress and Baena had separated in 2024 prior to his death. At the time, a family statement described the loss as a profound tragedy and requested privacy during mourning.
In recent conversations, Plaza has spoken about navigating grief while continuing her career, expressing gratitude for stability and support as she moves forward.
More recently, attention has surrounded speculation about the couple’s baby following a film premiere appearance where fans interpreted comments and gestures as a possible hint regarding the child’s gender. However, no official confirmation has been made, and the couple has remained private about further details.
What remains clear is the couple’s growing public comfort together, with their appearance at the Tony Awards reflecting a shared moment of celebration as they prepare for parenthood.
