Inside Kirsten Dunst's Relationship With Jesse Plemons

Kirsten Dunst surprised fans by appearing on the second cover of W magazine's Directors Issue with a growing baby bump. "Every shot was on the floor. I was like, 'I can't get up.' I felt like Urkel," the Jumanji actor said of the unique photo shoot that took place in her Beverly Hills home, per People. This is her second pregnancy with fiancé Jesse Plemons, who she has been engaged to since 2017. They welcomed their first child, a boy, in 2018.

Dunst opened up to Net-a-Porter in August 2019 about her road to becoming a mother, revealing that she was shocked she was able to get pregnant so quickly. "I thought I would have a hard time getting pregnant, but it was a surprise," she said. "If I hadn't met Jesse, I would have frozen my eggs. [But] it feels like I lucked out."

The actor also explained that she was in no rush to get married to Plemons and seems to be focusing on building her family. "We're about as married as you can get," she told the publication. "We have a kid together. My mom was like, 'But when are you guys getting married?' And I said, 'Mom, I'm not going to get married when I'm pregnant. I want to have fun and have a drink.'"
