Emma Stone is one of Hollywood's biggest stars, and a proud mom to a daughter, Louise Jean.
"There’s nothing I feel luckier about,” Stone said of her daughter in the September 2025 issue of Vogue. “She’s the greatest gift of my life, for sure.”
When Stone won her second career Oscar in 2024, the "Poor Things" actress thanked her family, including her parents, younger brother Spencer Stone, husband Dave McCary and last but not least, her daughter.
"I know I have to wrap up but I really just want to thank my family – my mom, my brother Spencer, my dad, my husband Dave, I love you so much," Stone said. "And most importantly, my daughter, who's going to be 3 in three days and has turned our lives technicolor."
"I love you bigger than the whole sky, my girl," Stone added, referencing the title of Taylor Swift's song "Bigger Than the Whole Sky" from her "Midnights (3am Edition)" album.
Stone was also nominated for a best actress Oscar in 2026 for her role in "Bugonia." She attended the 98th Academy Awards on March 15 with her husband by her side.
At the 2025 Oscars, Stone again made the ceremony a family affair, attending the awards with McCrary.
As a sought-after actress, Stone told Vogue that becoming a mom changed how she chooses roles.
“It’s streamlined everything,” she said, adding that she now things of how long a job will keep her away from home. “It’s a clichéd thing to say, but it changes everything. And simplifies everything.”

Dave McCary
Stone and McCary got engaged at the end of 2019.
At the time, McCary shared their engagement news in an Instagram post but has since taken down his personal Instagram account.
The couple met in 2016 when Stone was a guest host on "Saturday Night Live" and McCary was a director for the late-night show.
Stone and McCary married in 2020 and that same year, the actress and director started a joint production company called Fruit Tree and signed a first-look deal with A24, according to Deadline.
The couple attended the 96th Academy Awards together and also joined fellow star couples at the Vanity Fair Oscars after party.
Louise Jean
Stone had opened up previously in 2018 about wanting kids, telling fellow actress Jennifer Lawrence in an Elle interview that her perspective about children had changed over the years.
"As a teenager, I was like, I'm never getting married, I'm never having kids. And then I got older and I was like, I really want to get married, I really want to have kids," Stone said at the time.
After they married, Stone and McCary welcomed their first child, a daughter named Louise Jean in March 2021.
Louise's name appears to hold special family significance. According to Vanity Fair, Stone named her daughter after her grandmother, Jean Louise. Stone and her mother, Krista, also share the middle name Jean, adding even more sentimental value to Louise’s name.
Stone told Vogue of becoming a mom, "I do think it unlocks different things. I don’t know if it’s specifically that, but I feel everything I could possibly feel, because everything has exploded.”
