Olivia Munn and John Mulaney are officially parents of two! The couple shared the joyful news on Instagram, announcing the arrival of their daughter, Méi June Mulaney, born on September 14. Munn expressed her excitement, writing, “My heart has exploded,” and shared that their daughter’s name translates to “plum” in Chinese.
Munn and Mulaney tied the knot in July and are already parents to their son, Malcolm, born in 2021. In their announcement, Munn revealed that they welcomed their daughter via surrogate, sharing her heartfelt reflections on the experience. “I had so many profound emotions about not being able to carry my daughter,” she said. Upon meeting their gestational surrogate, Munn felt an instant connection, describing her as a “real-life angel.” She expressed immense gratitude for the surrogate’s role in keeping their baby safe for nine months, making their dreams of expanding their family come true.
Munn has been candid about her health journey, which has included significant challenges. In March, she was diagnosed with Luminal B breast cancer, affecting both breasts. Her treatment plan involved a double mastectomy, a decision she faced with strength and openness.
In a May interview with Vogue, Munn discussed her health struggles further, revealing that she underwent a hysterectomy the previous month. This procedure, while improving her quality of life, meant she could no longer carry future children. Munn emphasized that they had always planned to use surrogacy to grow their family, making the recent addition even more poignant.
With the birth of Méi, Munn and Mulaney embrace a new chapter in their lives, filled with love and gratitude. As they navigate parenthood with their two young children, their commitment to family shines brightly.
