Jon Hamm and his wife Anna Osceola are preparing to celebrate their first wedding anniversary – and if Jon gets his way, they may have something else to celebrate soon.
The 53-year-old actor revealed that he is ready to take the next step in his life and become a father for the first time as he expressed his desire to have children with Anna, 36.
Before he met Anna, Jon admitted that he "didn't look at marriage as a thing" following his parents' divorce, but since he became a husband, he "hopes [their marriage] turns into kids".

Speaking of how "terrified" he was to propose to Anna, Jon explained: "Obviously, my parents were not married long, so I don't have a model to look at and go, 'Oh, this is how one finds happiness.'
"I just knew at a certain point I wanted to be with this person. But when I proposed, I was terrified. I was like, 'What am I doing?'"
He added: "I just remember feeling, 'This is really scary.' Then going, 'Well, it probably means it's worthwhile.'"

"I was like, 'OK, I guess this is a thing.' We did it [where they had shot the Mad Men finale], which was also amazing. Again, it was like a reset, a reboot, a reframe, a reimagining, nine years later, almost to the day."
Jon and Anna met on the set of Mad Men in 2015 but reportedly didn't start dating until 2020. They got engaged in February 2023 and wed at Anderson Canyon in Big Sur, California, in June of that same year.

"The funny thing about this career is that there's no rule book. You really have to lean on one another for their support and for any kind of advice," he told People.

"All of the minutiae of planning it and dealing with it can be mind-numbing and all of the other things. But then you understand, and I think it only happened to me, maybe a week [prior] or so, where this sort of calm settled over me."

But at the end of the day…I'm gonna look out and I'm gonna see this whole group of people – and it's not a very big group of people. It's, well, under 100 people – but a group of people that are all there because they're supporting me and Anna."
Jon was previously in an 18-year relationship with actress and screenwriter Jennifer Westfeldt, which ended in 2015.
