Baby Bellamy has entered the chat
The couple, who began their fairytale romance in 2014, tied the knot in an ultra-luxe November 2017 ceremony. They first dipped their toes into parenthood in 2018 when daughter Genevieve made her grand entrance.

From ¡®one and done?¡¯ to baby no. 2
Back in 2019, a sleep-deprived but glowing Upton confessed she was nowhere near ready to go again on the baby train. She jokingly mentioned she had just started sleeping through the night and was not exactly planning baby number two any time soon.
Fast forward five years, and the tone shifted. Upton got real about the endless family-planning pressure. She shared how society¡¯s obsession with ¡°what¡¯s next¡± never really stops¡ªfirst it is the ring, then the baby, then the sequel.

But Kate clearly decided on her own timeline, and Bellamy is the proof.
Rumours, clarified
Last year, Upton low-key freaked the internet out after seeking legal advice over a ¡°drunk and high¡± father situation via Instagram Stories. Speculation exploded, with fans wrongly assuming Verlander was involved. She quickly nipped the drama in the bud, clarifying it was about her niece¡¯s dad¡ªnot her own husband.
She publicly defended Verlander as a caring, reliable, and totally present dad who always prioritises their daughter¡¯s safety and well-being. No scandal here, folks, just protective mama bear energy.
