Olivia Munn and John Mulaney Welcome Baby No. 2 After Cancer Fight
LOS ANGELES — Olivia Munn and John Mulaney are celebrating the arrival of their second baby, a daughter who was born last month.
A Joyous Announcement
Olivia Munn and John Mulaney are parents for the first time, they announced Monday on Instagram, revealing daughter Méi June Mulaney was born Sept. 14. Munn herself, who is still weathering the emotional toll of her recent Lyme disease scare, poured out thanks for their surrogate, referring to her as nothing short of a “living angel.”
Munn shared a heartwarming picture of herself cradling baby Méi in the hospital, in Mulaney’s lap with a lovely caption. She told of how hard it was to accept she would not be able to carry her daughter, but said she was incredibly grateful for the surrogate who successfully carried Méi for nine months.
My little plumb and her dragon dad for making it here! wrote Munn, using a Chinese word that translates to plum as she called herself the proud mom (and dad is Aaron Rodgers).
Celebrating New Life
He continued, hilariously riffing on his Instagram post: Alex Johnson revealed in a post that their daughter had arrived and said he was “stealing stuff from the hospital” — before adding, “I love my little girl so much.”
The couple welcomed their first child, son Malcolm Hiệp Mulaney in November 2021. In July 2024, exactly eleven months to the day of their first date at Denny’s, Mulaney and Munn said “I do” in a small courthouse ceremony–which was officiated by none other than her former Newsroom co-star, Sam Waterston.
Munn’s Cancer Journey
Munn has already had a rough 2018, opening up about her breast cancer diagnosis and treatment including four surgeries, a double mastectomy, and entering medically induced menopause. She has bravely updated her Instagram followers on her recovery, telling them she is “doing okay”. Munn even had her eggs removed several months before Mehus underwent a mastectomy, allowing her and Mulaney to expand their family using her own eggs and a surrogate.
Munn and Mulaney have been upfront about the tough times theyve weathered together — including Munn’s cancer scare and giving birth to their first child. But with baby Méi, now the light of their lives, they have a lot to look forward to this year.
A New Chapter
Olivia Munn and John Mulaney are rejoicing in the arrival of their baby girl as they eagerly prepare to embark on this new chapter, showered with love and thankfulness for their expanding family.
