Lily Collins became a global star thanks to her hit Netflix series Emily In Paris. People loved her style on the show and how she handled life in a new city. But her personal life often grabs headlines too. In January 2025, she and her husband Charlie McDowell welcomed their first child, a baby girl named Tove Jane McDowell.
On September 4, 2025, Lily and Charlie celebrated four years of marriage. To mark the occasion, Lily shared two photos showing how life has changed over the years. The first was a black-and-white Polaroid from their wedding. Lily wore a white bodycon dress with a high neck, and Charlie looked sharp in a black tuxedo with a bow tie. He was holding their puppy, making the moment even more special.
The second photo showed Charlie holding their daughter Tove by the beach. Tove wore a rainbow-striped onesie with a little cap, while Charlie was dressed casually in black. Their puppy was watching them, making the scene even more heartwarming.
Along with the photos, Lily wrote a touching note about the challenges of becoming a first-time mother. She shared that Tove was born via surrogacy and reflected on the past four years of marriage. She spoke about Charlie being an amazing husband, father, and partner. She admitted that she couldn’t have managed without him and praised both the big gestures and the small daily acts he does for their family. She expressed deep gratitude and said she never imagined a life or partnership like theirs.
When Lily and Charlie announced Tove’s arrival in January 2025, they shared the news on social media. They thanked their surrogate for the priceless gift of their daughter. In their statement, they wrote that Tove Jane McDowell was now at the center of their world and expressed endless gratitude for everyone who helped them along the way. They closed by saying they loved their daughter to the moon and back.
