Ileana's pregnancy note

Throughout her pregnancy, Ileana D’Cruz openly chronicled her journey on Instagram, sharing the profound experience. She expressed, “Being pregnant is such a beautiful beautiful blessing… I didn’t think I’d be fortunate enough to ever experience this so I consider myself so incredibly lucky to be on this journey. I can’t even begin to describe how lovely it is to feel a life growing inside of you. Most days I’m just overwhelmed staring down at my bump going wow - I get to meet you soon and then there’s some days that are so inexplicably hard. So trying. They’re overwhelming. All consuming. And things just feel hopeless.”

Reflecting on the support from her partner, Ileana shared, “And on the days I forget to be kind to myself, this lovely man has been my rock. He’s held me when he feels me starting to crack. And wipes the tears away. And cracks goofy jokes to make me smile. Or just offers a hug when he knows that’s exactly what I need in that moment." She conveyed how everything didn't seem so hard anymore.

Ileana and her partner Michael Dolan welcomed their son, Koa Phoenix Dolan, into the world on August 1, 2023. In a touching Instagram post, Ileana joyfully shared, “There are no words to express how overjoyed we are to welcome our sweet boy into the world. Our hearts are beyond full.”
