The couple has been very private about their relationship, not even revealing how long they’ve been together.

This is Skarsgård’s first child and Novotny’s second. Novotny has a 16-year-old daughter, Ella Lersbryggen, with her ex, Nicolai Bjerrum Lersbryggen.

During an interview in 2017, Skarsgård explained that he was excited to become a dad someday, stating, “I want to beat my dad. He had eight, so I better get cracking, I guess. My dad is 65 and had a kid four years ago. I was born in the ’70s. My dad had in the ’70s, the ’80s, the ’90s, in the 2000s, and in 2010.”
