Is fatherhood on the horizon for Jon Hamm?
The long-time bachelor hinted at the possibility of having a baby with Anna Osceola during a podcast recorded just days before their wedding.
On the episode of “Table for Two” hosted by Bruce Bozzi, which was released on Tuesday, Bozzi praised Hamm for the life he has “created” and “made happen” and asked if that would lead to starting a family.

Hamm, who is 52 years old, described his relationship with the 35-year-old Osceola as the “exciting part of life” and referred to it as a “signpost and a signifier of the next chapter and phase” that brings “a sense of stability and comfort.”

Before the Emmy winner began dating the actress, he swore off marriage in a 2012 Playboy interview, saying he did not feel a “driving force to have a baby.”
However, he noted at the time, “If it ever came up, I’m not ruling it out.”
By September 2022, Hamm had changed his tune, explaining to Howard Stern how his “comfortable” romance made him “open to” more milestones — including welcoming children.
The actor additionally credited his therapist with the about-face.
“It’s been a process of working on myself, my mental health … and unpacking all of that trauma,” he said, noting that his mother’s death when he was a child “create[d] a wound that block[e]d a lot of emotional accessibility and vulnerability.”
He added, “It’s only been in the last couple of years, me kind of sitting down and really thinking about all that stuff, that’s made the relationship that I’m in now even more meaningful and opened up the possibility of things like being married, having kids.”
The “Town” star joked that he sounded “hokey” but was “working” toward those goals nonetheless.
Hamm met Osceola in 2014 while filming the “Mad Men” series finale. The duo, who did not start dating until 2020, married Saturday in Big Sur, Calif., where they shot the episode.
