How Many Kids Does Emmy Rossum Have?
Emmy Rossum Celebrates Her Newborn Son's 2-Month Milestone
Emmy Rossum is an actor, director, and singer, but to her kids, she's just Mom. The 36-year-old star and husband Sam Esmail welcomed their first child, a daughter, in May 2021 and a son in April 2023. Despite keeping her personal life primarily private, the "Shameless" actor loves to share sweet family moments with her fans on Instagram but is always sure to never show her children's faces. By doing this, Rossum is not only able to highlight special moments with her two bundles of joy but also lets her supporters get a little glimpse into her life as a mother.
Rossum and Esmail tied the knot in 2017 after meeting four years prior on the set of their film "Comet," per People. Rossum starred as Kimberly in the movie, which was directed and written by Esmail, and by August 2015, they were engaged. Speaking to Vogue in 2017 about their engagement — which included Esmail mocking up a fake newspaper with their love story — Rossum recalled how it all played out.
"When I realised what it was and that the proposal was happening, I somehow thought, 'Well, the story can't be that I was in the bathtub when it happened,'" Rossum said, noting she was in the tub with a glass of wine while reading it. "So I got out of the bathtub wrapped in a towel, got cold, and then got back in the bathtub because the stories are quite long. And then by the time I finished the story, he was down on a knee in the bathroom, with me in the tub."
Rossum and Esmail's love story has continued to pan out in the public eye with the arrival of their two children. To learn all about the couple's kids, scroll through this gallery.
