The Jeepers Creepers actor previously hinted at his desire to have children with Bosworth while wishing his wife a happy birthday in January 2024.

"One day our kids might ask me, 'Dad, why did you write sappy things about Mom on that old Instagram app? The one you won’t let us use?'" he quipped. "And I’ll say 'Well, _____, because there are a lot of poisonous things on the Internet but your mom always inspires me to put good things into the world. Besides, I know reading those old posts touched her and made her smile.'"

Kate Bosworth and Justin Long went public with their romance in 2022.

"'And I’ve been so blessed to have experienced so many fun, wondrous things in this life - things for which I’ll never be able to properly express my gratitude — but of all those joys, touching your Mom and making her smile are my favorites,'" he continued.

Long noted: "They might say 'Ew!' Or 'Why?' And I’d say 'Because she completed all of your Dad’s favorite love songs. Even ones he hadn’t thought about since he was a kid. Like the theme song of a TV show he loved called FAMILY TIES. There was a line in that song that went like this '…and there ain’t no nothin’ we can’t love each other through.' And one year, when she was 40, your Mom completed that song too.'"

"'She’s simply the best' 💛🧚," he told his future offspring.

Happy Birthday to my favorite person. You are so good. So incredibly decent. So kind and deep and curious and wild," she expressed.
