Expectant mothers know that pregnancy hormones can make even the simplest moments feel incredibly emotional. Recently, a pregnant Anne Hathaway experienced this firsthand during an interview on the TODAY show.

As a result of the sweet gesture, the beloved star immediately grew emotional and shed a few joyful tears.
Pregnant Anne Hathaway gets teary-eyed over the cutest ‘The Odyssey’-themed baby gift
Anne Hathaway sat alongside her co-star, Tom Holland, wearing a beautiful, flowing dark teal maxi dress that elegantly showed off her growing baby bump. Suddenly, a crew member walked over to hand her a large woven gift basket tied with a big red ribbon.
Hathaway smiled warmly but instantly looked like she might cry as she accepted the present. “Oh, don’t!” she joked, trying to hold back her emotional reaction. Indeed, the customized gifts inside were enough to make any expectant mother swell with joy.
Next, the host revealed the contents of the unique basket. Because the movie is an epic tale, the TODAY show wardrobe team created a special, hand-crocheted Trojan warrior outfit for the baby.
Specifically, the host pulled out a tiny gray crocheted helmet complete with bright red and yellow yarn trim. Hathaway gasped with delight, asking if the next piece was a matching diaper cover. The host proudly held up the tiny gray-and-yellow bottoms, confirming it was a custom-designed Trojan costume. In addition, the basket contained a long red knitted cape and a cute plush horse toy. Holland smiled and picked up the toy, admiring the detailed craftsmanship alongside Hathaway.
Finally, the actress expressed her deep gratitude for the thoughtful gesture. She gently stroked the knitted items and thanked the crew, calling the unique set “appropriately epic.” This viral, heartwarming moment showed how much the star appreciates the love she receives during her journey into motherhood.
