Debby Ryan and Josh Dun had an exciting baby announcement to share with their fans.
The 32-year-old “Jessie” actress took to her Instagram on Sept. 7 to show off a growing baby bump as her husband — the drummer for Twenty One Pilots — held up a pair of checkered Vans baby shoes.
“dun&dun +one,” Ryan captioned the post.

Many of the couple’s celebrity friends shared their excitement in the comments section.
“So thrilled for you and Josh! Sending you lots of love and good vibes!” Kevin Chamberlin, who starred as Bertram Winkle on “Jessie,” wrote in the comments.
Fellow “Jessie” stars Karan Brar and Pierson Fode also commented on the photo.
“IM LOSING IT” Brar wrote, while Fode sent a simple “Congrats!!!”
“AHHHH IS IT MINE???? ( just joshin ya @joshuadun )” fellow actress Sarah Hyland added.
Even Dun’s mom, Laura McCollum Dun, joined in on the excitement.
“I already love this nugget!!!” she wrote in the comments.
“a Vans baby,” the official account for Vans chimed in.
Other stars to comment on the pregnancy announcement include actresses Francia Raisa, Lily Collins and Kat McNamara, and musician Paul Meany, who frequently collaborates with Twenty One Pilots.
A look at Debby Ryan and Josh Dun’s relationship timeline
The couple’s baby news comes more than five years after they tied the knot.
Ryan and Dun went on their first date in 2013 and made their relationship Instagram official later that year before announcing their engagement in December 2018, according to People.
The pair quietly tied the knot in Austin, Texas on Dec. 31, 2019, per the outlet.
“DEBBY!! congratulations 🤍🤍🤍 you and Josh are going to be the best parents,” Alex Moreau, the event planner behind the couple’s special day, commented under their Sept. 7 pregnancy announcement.
In an interview with Vogue in May 2020, Ryan confirmed that the couple planned their wedding in just 28 days — and it was spurred by the death of Ryan’s former co-star Cameron Boyce.
"When he passed, it really rocked me and put a lot of things in perspective," she told Vogue. "It didn't feel important to wait anymore, to stop being busy, or for things to line up perfectly.”
“Intending to do things is not nearly as powerful as doing, as we aren't promised tomorrow,” she added.
More recently, on June 18, Ryan took to Instagram to wish her husband a happy birthday alongside a photo carousel of the pair.
“surprise. he keeps getting better. happy birthday joshua,” she wrote in the caption.
The post sparked plenty of curiosity from fans who were patiently waiting for a baby announcement.
“I first read the caption saying “surprise” and thought you were announcing you’re pregnant omg,” one fan wrote on June 18.
“So are you pregnant? Or not?” another fan commented on Sept. 1.
One week later, the actress and musician confirmed what many had been waiting for — and now they’re about to be first-time parents.
As for the baby name, many fans are already trying to guess what the couple will choose for their first baby.
“If it’s a girl: Radio. If it’s a boy: Rebel,” one fan wrote under the Sept. 7 announcement — referring to the 2012 Disney movie “Radio Rebel” starring Ryan.
