Aubrey Plaza and Christopher Abbott Make Rare Red‑Carpet Debut at the Tonys

Their public appearance raises visibility, with Abbott nominated for his first Tony and Plaza reportedly due this fall.

Overview

  • The couple appeared together Sunday at the 79th Tony Awards in New York, where Plaza showed a visible baby bump and the pair posed on Radio City Music Hall’s red carpet.
  • Christopher Abbott is nominated for his first Tony Award for Best Featured Actor for his role as Biff Loman in the Broadway revival of Death of a Salesman.
  • Plaza publicly announced the pregnancy in April on the SmartLess podcast, and Abbott acknowledged the news on Today in mid‑May, saying the news was “very exciting.”
  • Plaza and Abbott first worked together on the 2020 film Black Bear and again in a 2023 off‑Broadway revival, and they began dating in late 2025 after keeping their relationship largely private.
  • Some background reporting about Plaza’s prior marriage and the reported January 2025 death of Jeff Baena is drawn from third‑party entertainment outlets and carries more limited sourcing compared with first‑hand statements from Plaza and Abbott.
