Is Elijah Wood Engaged — and About to Be a Dad? Actor Photographed with Partner Mette-Marie Kongsved https://t.co/RGCAWUsLv6

I love hearing about celebrities who keep their love lives completely undercover. I’m thinking of Zoe Kazan and Paul Dano, Melanie Lynskey and Jason Ritter and Alexis Bledel and Vincent Kartheiser (are they even still together)? All three couples had babies without saying anything to the press. You could make the argument that they’re not very famous, but consider all the minor celebrities who have made cottage industries out of their personal lives, and all the celebrities who do that but act like they’re above it. (Ahem Kristen Bell and Dax Shepard, Jennifer Garner.) That’s what came to mind when I saw the photo of Elijah Wood and his pregnant girlfriend/likely fiance, Danish movie producer Mette-Marie Kongsved. Kongsved was wearing what looked like an engagement ring. I’m happy for him! Here’s some of People’s writeup and they have the photo on their site.
Is Elijah Wood preparing for fatherhood?
The actor, 38, was photographed alongside his partner Mette-Marie Kongsved in Los Angeles on Monday shopping for furniture before visiting a Best Buy store.
Wood kept things casual in jeans, brown shoes and a button-down over a patterned white shirt.
Meanwhile Kongsved — a Danish movie producer — sported a noticeable baby bump under a burnt-orange-colored midi dress, as well as a ring on her left hand.
I recently saw Elijah in a movie with Melanie Lynskey on Netflix called I Don’t Feel at Home in This World Anymore. It’s an underrated film that I recommend. He’s also been doing TV and voice work. Ooh this story reminds me of Joseph Gordon Levitt, who has two children with a scientist and yet we have no idea of their names. Now I’m thinking of Daniel Radcliffe. Is he coupled-up because I want him to have a secret baby next. (Yes he is!)

I love “I Don’t Feel at Home in This World Anymore”, it is seriously, one of my favorite movies of the last decade. And the title is A+ – I’m sad it’s taken because it would make an excellent book title.
Omg we laughed so hard! He was hilarious in the movie and can do anything he wants. He’s a child actor that seems to be doing OK.
I am so happy for him. He always seemed like a genuinely nice guy. I am from LA, and always heard stories of him being mistreated and bullied by other famous people. I hope he has found people who are kind to him.
oh nooo! He seems so kind
He also still looks so young, not much older than when he was LOTR. It’s incredible
