NEW YORK — Emmy-winning actor Jon Hamm, best known for his iconic role as Don Draper on Mad Men, is set to become a first-time father at age 55. Representatives for the actor and his wife, 38-year-old actress Anna Osceola, confirmed the couple is expecting their first child together.
The pregnancy news broke after Osceola was photographed displaying a visible baby bump while vacationing with Hamm in the Hamptons.
From On-Screen Co-Stars to Marriage and Parenthood
Hamm and Osceola first met on set in 2015 while filming the series finale of Mad Men, where Osceola played a small role as Clementine, a receptionist at a retreat visited by Don Draper. The couple began dating several years later in 2020.
In June 2023, the pair tied the knot in an intimate ceremony held at Anderson Canyon in Big Sur, California—the exact same location where they filmed the final scenes of Mad Men nearly a decade prior.

Overcoming Personal Hesitations Around Marriage and Fatherhood
The news marks a profound shift for Hamm, who spent years expressing skepticism toward traditional marriage and family structures following his parents’ early divorce.
-
Changing Mindset: Hamm previously shared during a interview with Howard Stern that working through personal grief allowed him to open up to the idea of long-term commitment and family life.
-
Embracing Late Fatherhood: Speaking candidly about becoming a parent later in life, Hamm noted in a 2024 interview: “It’s not lost on me that I’m 53. I will be the old dad, but so it goes. It could be a good thing. We’ll see.”
-
Growing Closer: Friends close to the couple report that Hamm is “over the moon” and deeply involved in preparing for the baby’s arrival in New York.
Continuing Their Professional Partnership
Beyond their personal life, Hamm and Osceola have continued to collaborate professionally. The couple co-starred in the 2022 comedy Confess, Fletch and reunited on screen again in season two of Apple TV+’s drama Your Friends & Neighbours.
