"They survived something no woman should be forced to endure," Lawrence said of the documentary subjects during her introduction. "Then they shared their stories with the world in the hopes that other women wouldn't have to suffer the way they did. By this definition, they are heroes."
Lawrence and Maroney exchanged a high five and a kiss as Lawrence walked off the stage, an eyewitness tells E! News.
On Oct. 20, Lawrence’s rep confirmed the couple’s happy news to Vogue just hours after they were spotted out to dinner in Los Angeles together with Lawrence wearing a white T-shirt over her baby bump.
The pair, who married in Newport, Rhode Island in October 2019, are parents to a son, Cy, 2. They have opted to keep much of their personal life private with Lawrence making the occasional comment about motherhood.
"Of course, I’ve contemplated having a child that’s being born into a lifestyle that’s different from his friends," she told fellow actress Cameron Diaz in a 2023 Interview magazine chat. "But kids have advantages and disadvantages when they’re born, all of them."
Lawrence continued, "The best thing I can do is just make sure he knows he’s loved, and that he’s our number one priority, and try to be a good example of kindness. I’m sure there will be challenges specifically from my choices and my lifestyle, and we’ll both have to confront that and deal with it when that day comes."
