Aubrey Plaza stepped out to celebrate her partner Christopher Abbott at Broadway's biggest night. The 41-year-old actress and 40-year-old actor walked the red carpet at the 2026 Tony Awards on Sunday, June 7, at Radio City Music Hall in New York City.

Abbott earned a nomination for his performance in Arthur Miller's Death of a Salesman, a production that also received recognition in multiple categories including Best Revival of a Play, Best Actor for Nathan Lane, and Best Featured Actress for Laurie Metcalf.

The red carpet outing marks the first time the couple has walked together since they announced they're expecting their first child together just weeks prior. Plaza had previously joined Abbott at the play's opening night celebration but this marked their first official carpet appearance as a couple since the pregnancy news broke.

The pair's professional connection dates back several years. They first crossed paths during production of the indie film Black Bear in summer 2019, and later took the project to the Sundance Film Festival in January 2020. More recently, they reunited for the off-Broadway production of Danny and the Deep Blue Sea, which ran from October 2023 through January 2024.

The pregnancy announcement came in April. Plaza subsequently confirmed the exciting news during an appearance on the Smartless podcast, sharing her enthusiasm about becoming a mother. Abbott also opened up about the pregnancy during an appearance on Today, offering his first public remarks on the subject.

Plaza accessorized her look with pieces from Effy Jewelry for the evening.
