Jennifer Lawrence is a mom!

The Hunger Games star, 31, has reportedly welcomed her first child with husband Cooke Maroney, TMZ reports.

Lawrence gave birth in Los Angeles, however, no gender or exact birthdate has been revealed as of yet.

The Academy Award winner sparked pregnancy rumors in early September after she was captured out in New York City with a noticeable baby bump.

Shortly after, a representative for the Don't Look Up star confirmed she was expecting her first child with Maroney.

The pair were first linked in June 2018, with Lawrence and Maroney, 37, later becoming engaged the following February. The couple tied the knot on October 19, 2019, in Rhode Island.

Art gallery director Maroney and Lawrence held a wedding reception for 150 guests, including their A-lister friends such as Adele, Amy Schumer, Kris Jenner, and Emma Stone.

Maroney currently works as the director of New York’s Gladstone art gallery, which represents high-profile clients such as Anish Kapoor, Matthew Barney, and Lena Dunham’s father, Caroll Dunham.

Lawrence, who is known for the Hunger Games films and won the best actress Oscar for Silver Linings Playbook, previously gushed over her man on Catt Sadler's podcast, Naked with Catt Sadler.

Describing him as "the greatest human being I've ever met," Lawrence told Sadler just how she fell for Maroney.

Speaking in 2019, she was asked why she married him and said: "I don't know, I started with the basics: 'How do I feel? Is he nice? Is he kind?'

"It's just - this is the one, I know that sounds really stupid but he's just, he's the greatest person I've ever met, so I feel very honored to become a Maroney."

According to Entertainment Tonight, Lawrence told host Heather McMahan that Cooke allows her to have sleepovers with friends.

She said: "I never know the end of the hangout. Like, I'm married and I have slumber parties like once a week.

"My friend came over [last night] and it was not planned, but she ended up spending the night and we slept in my bed and my husband slept in our guest."

The actress continued: "He knows the drill. My best friend in the entire world, we used to have sleepovers all the time.

"Then she got married when we were pretty young. I was like, 24 and I was like, 'Well, I understand. It's going to change. You're going to get married.' She was like, 'Oh, it's not.' And we still, to this day -- she's been married for seven years -- we love a girly slumber."
