Taylor Lautner's Wife Tay Lautner Shares How He’s Been Her “Saving Grace” During Pregnancy
Tay Lautner is feeling loca about her husband's support.
Two months after the influencer and Taylor Lautner announced they were expecting their first baby, she shared a glimpse into how they were navigating her pregnancy journey together.
"He's been my saving grace," Tay said of the Twilight alum in an exclusive interview with E! News at Maybelline's first-ever Mental Health Summit June 4. "He has been so helpful, running around, doing all of the things, picking up random food, filling up my water with ice 27 times a day."
"He has been just the biggest help," she continued. "It's really awesome. It's really cool to walk through this with your partner."
And like many expecting mothers, the 29-year-old—who tied the knot with Taylor in 2022—has found herself craving some very specific foods.
"I have had quite a few random little things," she admitted. "Each week it kind of changes. This week, it's Girl Scout cookies, so that's what we're sticking with."
For Tay, it was no surprise to see the 34-year-old step into their newest chapter so smoothly as they prepare to welcome their little spider monkey.
"I always say I married him because I knew he was going to be a great dad," she said. "I'm excited to see him in that role."
"Getting to watch him with kids is special," she added. "He is so kind and caring. I'm just excited to see him do that. I think he's gonna thrive."
As for how the couple will be celebrating Father's Day June 21? The same way they honored her in May.

"Probably a little something," the registered nurse shared. "We did a little something for me for Mother's Day. We said we're not expecting other people to celebrate us, but we're gonna celebrate each other before."
"He just spoiled me and got me flowers," she said of their earlier celebration. "He did all of the sweet little things."
While the model couldn't help but praise the Adventures of Sharkboy and Lavagirl actor, she also put a spotlight on her own mom as inspiration for her next chapter.
"It's really inspiring," she added. "She's definitely one of the most hardest-working people I know, so I hope to continue that. She's always been my number one supporter."
For a look back at the sweetest adventures of Tay and Taylor, keep reading.
October 2018
Taylor Lautner and Tay Lautner (née Taylor Dome) first went Instagram official with their relationship on Halloween, with the Twilight star sharing a photo of the couple in costume as members of the Tune Squad from Space Jam.
Taylor met the registered nurse through his sister Makena Moore, who called him and said, "'Dude, I found your future wife. You need to meet this girl,'" the Scream Queens alum recalled to People. "And the rest is history."
And during an appearance on The Kelly Clarkson Show last year, Taylor went into further detail about the role his sibling played in setting the lovebirds up.
"I love game nights," Taylor explained. "She's like, 'Throw a game night, invite me and some of my friends over, and I'll bring Tay. She'll just be one of them, and you guys can just meet.' We hit it off."
November 2021
The Valentine's Day actor shared the happy news that the couple was engaged on Instagram, writing in his caption, "And just like that, all of my wishes came true."
Along with his announcement, Taylor shared behind-the-scenes photos of the moment he proposed. In one image, Tay looked emotional with her hands placed over her mouth while Taylor was down on one knee. The other picture captured an intimate moment between the two, which showed Tay wrapping her hands around Taylor's face.
"My absolute best friend," Tay wrote on her Instagram. "I CANNOT WAIT TO SPEND FOREVER WITH YOU."
During his interview on The Kelly Clarkson Show the following year, Taylor confirmed that his fiancée would be taking his last name. "We already share one name," he told Kelly Clarkson. "We're literally going to be the same person."
July 2022
Taking part in the social media challenge "show your childhood crush and the person you ended up with," Tay made a loca confession about her Twilight allegiance in the infamous Edward vs. Jacob debate.
Her Instagram clip showed two snaps of Robert Pattinson as the brooding Cullen vampire before changing to a photo of Taylor as his werewolf character. Tay's caption read, "I think it's time to come clean." Taylor commented, "'Bout time I won something."
Alas, Tay has yet to meet Rob, even though Taylor revealed to E! News that she once had the chance to when she sat next to him on a transatlantic flight but "didn't say hi."
"She was visiting me on the set of a TV show I did called Cuckoo in London," Taylor recalled. "When she got to me, she was like, 'You'll never guess who I was sitting next to on the plane.'" Tay didn't end up approaching The Batman star, though Taylor said he "would've loved" the serendipitous encounter.
For her part, Tay explained E! News that she didn't talk to Rob because it would've sounded "so weird" to introduce herself as "Taylor's girlfriend that no one knows yet."
October 2022
Ahead of their nuptials, Taylor enjoyed a bachelor party in Miami, Fla., with guests including former E! host Jason Kennedy and Spritz Society founder Ben Soffer.
The festivities included jet skiing, dining at the Japanese-inspired steakhouse Gekko and sitting court side at a Miami Heat basketball game—which added up to "the most incredible weekend I could have imagined," Taylor wrote in an Oct. 25 Instagram Story.
Earlier that month, Tay had her own time to shine courtesy of a floral-themed bridal shower. In an Instagram post, Tay shared several photos from the special day with the sweet caption, "I can't wait to marry you @taylorlautner"
The snaps caught the attention of her then-husband-to-be who left cheeky comment, "911: what is your emergency Me: my fiancé just posted [fire emoji] pics."
