Anna Paquin And Stephen Moyer Expecting A Baby

While Bill and Sookie’s relationship has been up and down over the course of True Blood’s run, stars of the HBO drama series Anna Paquin and Stephen Moyer appear to be going strong in their off-screen romance. News broke today that the couple are expecting a baby together.

Entertainment Weekly confirmed the news this evening, stating that Paquin, 29, is pregnant and due this fall. Paquin plays the lead character Sookie Stackhouse in HBO’s supernatural drama True Blood, while Moyer plays Bill Compton, a vampire and (occasional) love-interest to Sookie. Moyer and Paquin met while shooting the pilot for True Blood and were married in 2010. While this is Paquin’s first child, Moyer has two children from previous relationships. News of the couple’s first child together is certainly cause to celebrate and we wish them all the best.

True Blood is set to return this summer for its fifth season, and at present, there’s no word on whether the series will be back for a sixth season next year. We do know that series creator Alan Ball is stepping down as showrunner after Season 5, which premieres on HBO June 10.
