Debby Ryan and Josh Dun Expecting First Child: A New Chapter for the Celebrity Couple

Joyful Announcement

Former Disney Channel star Debby Ryan, known for her role in “Jessie,” has announced she’s expecting her first baby with her husband Josh Dun of Twenty One Pilots.

The announcement came on September 7, 2025, through Instagram, where the couple shared intimate photos including a striking image of Debby in a white butterfly-patterned top showing her baby bump, while Josh held a tiny pair of baby Vans sneakers. The post was cleverly captioned “dun&dun + one,” playing on Josh’s last name and their growing family. The couple also shared a playful cartoon illustration created by artist duo DabsMyla.

The Couple’s Journey

Ryan and Dun’s love story began in 2013, and they tied the knot in 2019 in a wedding that was planned in less than a month. Their relationship has been marked by a fun-loving spirit, with Josh noting in a 2022 interview that their marriage defied traditional expectations: “We live in an adult house and decorate it like kids and do kid stuff in it. We couldn’t sleep the other night so we just hung out in the kitchen and jumped around and ate snacks.”

Career Highlights and Future Projects

Following her successful run on Disney Channel’s Jessie, which ended in 2015, Debby has maintained an active career, starring in Netflix’s Insatiable and films like Night Teeth and Horse Girl. She is set to appear in an upcoming movie titled Famous alongside Zac Efron. Additionally, she has recently wrapped production on ‘Orion,’ a sci-fi thriller directed by Jaco Bouwer, where she stars alongside Andrew McCarthy and Drew Van Acker. The film focuses on an intriguing story about an amnesiac astronaut and a mysterious space mission incident.

Public Response and Future Plans

The pregnancy announcement has been met with overwhelming positivity from fans, fellow celebrities, and entertainment commentators. Disney Channel alum Hayley Kiyoko has shared an emotional message of congratulations, and social media platforms have been flooded with well-wishes from supporters. Ryan has previously addressed the topic of motherhood and fame, particularly discussing her thoughts on protecting her future child’s privacy from media attention during a 2021 Facebook Live session.
