Bonnie Wright and her husband, Andrew Lococo, are celebrating a magical new addition following the birth of their second baby.
“Say hello to our son Aster Sky Wright Lococo born at home on the 28th September 💫🌸 named after the star-shaped flower,” Wright, 35, wrote via Instagram on Saturday, October 17, introducing her newborn. “Our little star has been showered in love by his big brother Elio. Thank you universe for my loving bundle of boys!
Wright — who is best known for her role as Ginny Weasley in the Harry Potter film franchise — announced in April that she was pregnant and expecting baby No. 2.
“Two babies on my lap 🐣,” she captioned an Instagram photo of son Elio lying on her as her growing bump peeked out from beneath her T-shirt. “Our second little earthling [is] joining us this autumn!!”
The following month, Wright shared an update on her pregnancy journey.
“Second pregnancy definitely hits different,” she wrote in a May Instagram post. “My energy being pulled in one direction by my toddler and the other by growing tiny organs in my body. Doubling the blood flowing through my body. Feeling nauseous or dizzy. Searching for connection … Waiting for them to connect with me. Show me who they are and who they are expanding me to become. All an unknown. An unravelling. A never ending journey 🌹.”
Wright and Lococo — who tied the knot in March 2022 — became first-time parents when they welcomed son Elio in September 2023.
“Say hello to Elio Ocean Wright Lococo, [he was] born at home on Tuesday 19th September,” she announced via Instagram at the time. “We’re all healthy and happy. Andrew and I are so in love with our sun! So grateful for our birth team that have held our hands throughout and made the journey so joyous and expanding.”

After declaring that “birth is the wildest experience,” Wright credited Lococo with being her “rock” throughout the delivery.
“I squeezed onto you so tight and you never wavered,” she added. “Elio has the most tender loving papa.”
One year later, Wright revealed that she hoped her son would explore the world of Harry Potter at some point in the future, though she had one condition for him watching the beloved films.
“I mean, I can’t force it on him, but I’m definitely gonna positively encourage reading it,” she exclusively told Us Weekly in September 2024. “I hope to read it to him … but I definitely will make sure we read the books before we watch the movies. Could be like reading a book, [then] watching a movie. But I’m definitely gonna make sure we go through the books. I also remember growing up with the audiobooks, so maybe the audiobooks would be nice.”
