cuppateathanx: Jack and Saoirse Lowden would formally like to share and confirm the birth of their daughter. Her name they will reserve from the public at this time. All are very safe and are greatly overjoyed from this grand new life welcomed into the family.
tagged: @famelowden
ayo: um yes please do bring your wonderful wife along so i can steal her away from you for the evening!! don’t worry, i promise to return her... eventually 🙂↕️
Jack: We'll see how things go, we hate being away from the bairn for long if we can help it. She always comes back to me anyway, so steal her as long as ye like.
Thanks, mate! Appreciate it. I haven't heard of any these coming out, so thanks for putting them on my radar. I bet my sisters would love the Pride and Prejudice miniseries whenever it comes out. They love romance and such.
Always happy to promote meself. I'd promote me wife's stuff, too, but she's no been working on much recently. She's got a movie called Bad Apples that's done a few film festivals, but nae word when it'll be out for the public just yet, but keep an ear oot. Ye might even enjoy the show, too. Even if it's just because of me pretty face.
Hello you sunshine of a man. I am exhausted and I am running on fumes. And I feel like I need to apologize for that. I can't carry on a decent conversation for anything.
@famelowden
Sweetheart, never apologise for that. And if anybody should, it's me. Who knew that balancing work life and dad life would be this hard? This is why I wanna just be a house husband. We don't need to say anything, as long as I still get tae wrap me arms around ye and maybe watch a bit of mind-numbing telly, I'm happy as anything.
Mate, did they tell you Rogue Trooper is in edit lock? It's coming out next year now, I think they're doing re-takes with Sean Bean. It's always these theatre types, I tell you. Someone said we might be asked to go to Comic-Con in San Diego next year for it, will you go? I've never been. | @famelowden
Is it? I've had so much going on this year, havenae been keeping up with all the emails and that. Did ye know that Sean Bean was actually born Shaun Bean? Dinnae trust a fella who changes his name just to fuck with the world. Never been to Comic Con, so definitely wouldnae say no to an offer like that. Would be good fun to be surrounded by other sweaty nerds like meself.
Hehe Yeah you'd be lost if you lost the directions to anything babe. What you know it's true. That is your superpower. When you have a clear plan, a system, or established directions, you are the most focused, effective coach on the planet. You don't tolerate ambiguity in directions, and when the rules are set, your guidance is laser-sharp and successful every single time. That’s when I realized the difference. When there’s no IKEA manual, no recipe, and no clear structure—when it’s pure, messy, open-ended emotion or brainstorming—that’s where we both get stuck.
Well we are equal. Can I say we are equal in all things? These humans don't know how to do equally well in love like we do. Im kidding. You do, it was endearing early on, cause rather than take offense, I could see how vulnerable you were, how in need of pure love and a kind word you were. Now it's a fun challenge to see Jack accept it.
No we havent slept. Your eyes show it, I say that lovingly. I think wre do need a solid week of just cuddling to do us right. I know how much energy you pour into everything you do, whether it's work, projects, or just making our home better, and I love that focus. But I also notice lately that both of us are running on fumes. We’ve reached that tipping point where the benefit of another hour of pushing through late at night is completely canceled out by how tired, irritable, and forgetful we are the next day. You and your avoiding the light pollution
Why are you the cutest husband alive?
Good thing am an expert navigator, eh? Never got us lost. Hate being unprepared for anything, ye know what I'm like whenever we go on holiday, gotta research everything beforehand so I know exactly what we could do, even if we dinnae get around to doing it. Comes in handy for work, too, because prepared actors are just better at the job, always. And we get an excuse to research really niche subjects for months at a time. I'd happily just dae that part of the job. Anybody need a historical advisor for a Jacobite period drama any time soon?
Even if there's things that one of us might be 'better' at, it sorta doesnae matter, because we treat it equally anyway. Or at least balance it out, so any difference is irrelevant. Oh no, don't compliment me... Totally hate it...
Saying I look tired, eh? How dare ye say the truth. Ye still look as radiant as ever, fuck knows how ye dae it. You're no one of those wives who sneaks outta bed early to make yerself look perfect before yer husband wakes up, are ye? I know I have a habit of working hard, but I love what I do, and I would take a week of sleepless nights so I can make the most of my free time with you and Roen over a good night's sleep. Light pollution is the worst. I reckon we should go back to the blackouts of the Blitz once a week so we get to enjoy the stars in the middle of London. Imagine how gorgeous that would be, sitting on Parliament Hill, looking at all the constellations? Dreamy.
Just following the programming I was given in the lab. Uh... I mean, totally am a human with human infrastructure.
Oye, you fucking incredible good human you. No good man! Congratulations on being named one of the top ones by Esquire!
@famelowden
Why are ye being nice to me? What ye want?
ayo: dude, i’m so pumped!! counting down the days. will i catch you at the premiere, or are you too busy being a movie star, mr. booked and busy?
Jack: Definitely hoping to be at the premiere! Might even bring a hot date with me, if am feeling brave.
Being a dad really suits you! It’s pure magic, isn’t it? This tiny human just enters your world and loves you unconditionally. And hey, that’s okay! Sometimes going with the flow works better than a strict routine. Teamwork really makes a difference. When do you start filming?
Thank ye, I've been told for years that I'd be a great dad, and turns out I am. If I had a big giant feeding me and wiping me arse every day, I'd love it unconditionally, too, eventually. Aye, every parent I know has said trying to implement a strict routine straight away will never work, because babies have nae concept of routines, apparently. Who knew? Been back and forth doing bits for the past month, but hasnae been too bad. After this project, though, no sure yet when I'll next be filming something.
Alright, I have a very important question here. Eggnog, yes or no? I have to be honest with you, I look forward to the holidays mainly because eggnog is going to be coming around. I love it, and I am not saying that this friendship will be off to a rocky start if you aren't a fan. We would be able to work though it, I know it.
@famelowden
I'll have it, but am more of a mulled wine lass meself. Or maybe a nice Baileys hot chocolate. The holidays is just an excuse for nice, warm alcoholic drinks, in me own opinion.
fair assessment and also not upset at this either. but if i don't actively work on stuff a lot of the time; i'll wind up going into a dark place. so it's kind of my therapy of sorts. yes it was 'just my luck'! well we were so young when we did that movie i wasn't even twenty i don't think. some people aren't soppy about their kids in public i could be wrong though.
That's fair - I suppose oor jobs are pretty different in that respect. Yer work is an extension of ye, whereas acting is more an escape from meself. So me downtime is spent exploring meself, like ye do with writing music and that. Chris Pine's eyes in that movie are to die for. Yer performances are comically bad, but it's sorta charming, ye know? That I don't mind, ye don't have to be telling the whole world about yer kid, but gushing about them to yer family and friends is alright. Privacy is still privacy.
jack.lowden date nicht @famesaoirse
Inside the card:
Dear mam, @famesaoirse I asked da to write this, because I'm still learning how to hold my head up, so it might be a while until I master the art of writing for myself. I just wanted to thank you for being the best parent ever (sorry, da), and giving me so many cuddles and tummy tickles. I can't wait to get a bit older so I can enjoy them even more. I picked out some gifts for you, and it was definitely all me doing that, and da just paid for it. Love always and forever, Roen (and da) x
The first show is in Hamburg, Germany on March 23rd. Pretty sure that's the first show of the tour. I should probably figure that out so I can let the fans know how excited I am later on. Are there any new movie or television projects coming out that I should know about?
Ooh, very nice - gorgeous city. Hope it goes well for ye, fella, and ye get plenty of rest before ye set off. Latest season of Slow Horses just finished coming out, got a recording of me in a play from the summer called The Fifth Step airing in cinemas this month, got Ella McCay coming oot next month, and been working on a Pride and Prejudice miniseries lately. So no much to look forward tae.
That was absolutely incredible, and I knew it would be.Oh you say commentator? My immediate thought was, you would be great for rugby. We've spent so many afternoons screaming at the telly over the Six Nations and the World Cup that I'd be genuinely disappointed if it were for anything but that. You have this deep, instinctive understanding of the game—the strategy, the raw emotion—that would make you a natural. Honestly, you need to stop that. Stop doubting where you belong. You were born to land here, wherever here is for you right now, because you have skills that don't even begin to compare.
And I mean that across the board. I would start to get genuinely upset whenever another actor got recognized over you because, in my eyes, no one even comes close. Not in that raw, gut-punch way you deliver a performance. I know I might sound biased, but you also need someone in your life to be absolutely honest with you if something was crap. Of course, it wasn't. Of course, it was everything. Every subtle look, every line delivered with that perfect amount of tension.
That tiny adjustment you made—the one I know you worried about—I'm sure the Scots among the audience really appreciated it. It’s that level of detail and consideration that elevates your work from great to legendary.
This is exactly why you are, without a doubt, the best actor walking. You consider these things. You think about the context, the audience, and the humanity of the moment. I have not seen many people who can do that, process it, and still command a room the way you do. You possess a confidence that is sometimes quiet, a powerful inner certainty, and sometimes it's loud, taking center stage. But people these days wildly underrate true, grounded confidence and ambition. Seeing that combination in you lets me know that humans are multitudes; they can be incredibly successful and confident, yet still deeply empathetic. That's a rare and powerful balance.
It's been one of those frantic weeks, and I’m so ready for that thing we talked about. I am certainly no expert on the constellations—beyond, you know, finding the Big Dipper and maybe putting the stars into the pattern of our actual sign symbols. That’ll have to do. The point is, it will still heal our inner selves to just sit there, side by side, and be romantic about the whole thing.
And speaking of a star, I look at our daughter and just feel overwhelmed. Ahh, I always say she is the best part of both of us, but she is undoubtedly like you in her quiet focus and determination. I just can't wait to see who she grows up to be and what incredible things she decides to take on.
I'd be great at rugby or footie, as long as I've got the team sheets in front of me because there's nae chance I'm remembering any player that's no Scottish just off the cuff. Would be a lot of fun, though, just getting to sit around watching sports and chatting shite about it and get paid for it. Sign me the fuck up.
Ye act like I'm the one always saying the nicest things about ye, but ye always oozing generous words about me, sometimes I dinnae quite know how to react. Me natural instinct is to brush it off because I dinnae believe it, but I also know that ye wouldnae say it if ye didnae believe it yerself. And yer opinion is way better than mine, so ye must be thinking something right.
Aye, tell me about it. Could do with having a month off just to sleep. Between events, filming, and Roen, I feel like I've no had a proper night's sleep in about a year. Am I exaggerating? Aye, a wee bit, but I'm an actor, am allowed to be a wee bit dramatic from time to time. Maybe now I've got a few days off, we can just cuddle up and rest as much as possible, especially now oor gorgeous bairn's settled down a bit more now. I know a few of them, mostly for navigational reasons. Could I find me way hame by the stars? If there's nae light pollution, then maybe.
Most importantly she's got yer cute nose. Never gonnae get tired of booping it. She'll be 30 and it'll be her wedding day and I'll still be booping it.

Jack: Just over a month til oor movie comes out. Excited?! @ayodebiris
i did the lyrics and music for it, yes. i am juggle a lot sometimes - i had done 'strictly come dancing' while touring. i could never in a million years do what you do on camera. i did one acting thing, with my band forever ago, and never again. not to say that i didn't enjoy the experience of it all however i'm much more comfortable in my world with the music and books. that's not soppy at all! i'd more than likely feel the same way if i had any kids.
You're mad, I struggle to focus on one thing at a time. I try to limit overlap as much as possible. Aye, Just My Luck, right? Legendary movie. The acting wasnae great, but the hairstyles were so distractingly bad, ye hardly notice the acting. I think anybody who isnae soppy about their kids constantly aren't quite right.
