Congratulations are in order for and her musician husband as they welcome baby number three to the world.
The actress actually gave birth months ago without telling anyone and has only just revealed the good news now.
Carey, 38, already shares two children with Marcus – Evelyn, seven, and Wilfred, five – but announced they were .
She made her on the red carpet the following month but the couple has kept things low key since then.
In her cover interview with Vogue for the November issue, the Promising Young Woman actress admitted she was actually six weeks postpartum during their chat.
Icon that she is, Carey arrived at the interview carrying her newborn and rocking a t-shirt with a ‘yellow diaper-leak stain streaked across’ it.
Continuing the family’s priority for privacy, no name or gender has been revealed for the newborn.
Marcus, 36, of Mumford and Sons fame, and Carey tied the knot back in 2012 at a quiet family wedding a converted barn on a Gloucestershire farm.
Famous friends were rumoured to be in attendance, including A-listers Sienna Miller and Colin Firth.
Adorably, the couple were actually childhood pen pals but lost touch over the years before rekindling things in a five month whirlwind romance.
They tend to keep their relationship out of the spotlight, although the Little Lion Man singer did for her episode of US sketch show Saturday Night Live.
Waiting until after she had flexed her comedic muscles with jokes about her likeness to fellow actor Michelle Williams, Marcus popped up with an acoustic guitar to serenade his wife.
Not missing a beat, the I Will Wait hitmaker reassured her and joked the kids had been left in the care of ‘the Sons’.
She previously told that balancing work and home life ‘changes as they get older’.
Carey admitted that parenthood had ‘influenced’ her ‘career choices’ over the years.
She added: ‘When they’re tiny, they are sort of portable. Now mine are getting a bit older, it will become clearer what is and isn’t possible for us.’
Despite their high profile careers, Carey insisted their family life ‘is very normal – School runs, Sunday lunches.’
Vogue’s November 2023 issue is available on newsstands nationwide on October 24th – read Carey’s full interview .
