Shah Rukh Khan and Gauri Khan Welcome Third Child After Years of Choosing a Two-Child Family
Mumbai, April 05, 2025 – Bollywood’s beloved superstar Shah Rukh Khan and his wife, interior designer and producer Gauri Khan, have once again captured the hearts of fans worldwide with the surprising yet joyous announcement of their third child. The couple, who have been married since 1991 and are parents to Aryan Khan (27) and Suhana Khan (24), had long maintained that their family was complete with their two children. However, in a delightful twist, the Khans have welcomed a new member into their iconic family, breaking their years-long stance of remaining child-free after raising their son and daughter.

The news came as a shock to fans and industry insiders alike, given that Shah Rukh and Gauri had openly embraced their roles as parents to just two children for over two decades. Aryan, born in 1997, and Suhana, born in 2000, have grown up in the spotlight, with Suhana recently stepping into the acting world herself. The couple’s decision to expand their family now has sparked widespread celebration and curiosity across social media and entertainment circles.
In an emotional statement released through Shah Rukh’s production house, Red Chillies Entertainment, the couple shared their happiness: “We felt our family wasn’t complete yet. After years of cherishing our life with Aryan and Suhana, this little one came as a beautiful surprise, a gift we couldn’t say no to. Every child brings a new chapter, and we’re ready to write this one with all our love,” Shah Rukh said. Gauri added, “It’s a new beginning for us, and we’re overjoyed to welcome this blessing into our lives.”
Sources close to the family revealed that the decision to have a third child was not taken lightly. “Shah Rukh and Gauri had always said they were content with two kids,” an insider shared. “But over the past couple of years, they started feeling that their home could use more laughter and energy. It’s a deeply personal choice, and they’re thrilled about it.” While the couple has not yet disclosed the name or gender of the newborn, speculation is rife that an official announcement might coincide with a grand celebration at their iconic Mumbai residence, Mannat.
Shah Rukh Khan, often referred to as the ‘King of Bollywood,’ has been a devoted family man despite his larger-than-life career. From attending Aryan’s graduation to cheering Suhana’s debut in The Archies, SRK has balanced stardom with fatherhood seamlessly. Gauri, a successful entrepreneur and the backbone of the Khan household, has equally been a hands-on mother, often sharing glimpses of their family life on social media. The arrival of their third child marks a new milestone for the power couple, who have inspired millions with their enduring love story.
Fans have flooded X and Instagram with congratulatory messages, with hashtags like #SRKBaby3 and #KhanFamily trending within hours of the news breaking. “Shah Rukh and Gauri deserve all the happiness! A third child after so long is so special,” wrote one fan. Another added, “Mannat is going to be even livelier now—can’t wait to see SRK as a dad to a little one again!”
While details about the baby’s birth—whether through natural means or surrogacy, as was the case with their youngest son AbRam (born in 2013)—remain private, the Khans are known for keeping their personal lives discreet until they’re ready to share. AbRam, now 11, has often been the apple of his parents’ eye, and many wonder how the young boy will take to his new role as a big brother.
As Shah Rukh gears up for his next cinematic venture and Gauri continues to expand her design empire, the couple’s decision to embrace parenthood once more has only solidified their status as a family that defies expectations. Industry friends like Karan Johar, Kajol, and Deepika Padukone have reportedly already sent their best wishes, with Johar hinting at a “grand celebration” in the works.
For now, the world waits eagerly for the first glimpse of the newest Khan, a child who has already brought a fresh wave of joy to one of India’s most cherished families. As Shah Rukh himself once said in a classic interview, “Family is everything.” And with this latest addition, the Khan family just got a little bigger—and a whole lot happier.
