Bruce Springsteen's daughter announces 'new adventures'

Jessica Springsteen, daughter of Bruce Springsteen, and her partner, Nicola Philippaerts, are expecting their first baby together.

The couple shared the news in a joint Instagram post on Saturday, October 10. Jessica, 34, and Nicola, 33, are both professional equestrians.

The post was a carousel of photos that appeared to be from a vacation by the Mediterranean, and Nicola is seen cradling Jessica’s baby bump in several of them. They captioned it “New adventures.”

Jessica is one of three children Bruce, 77, has with his wife and longtime bandmate, Patti Scialfa. Her brothers are Evan, 36, and Samuel, 32.

The baby will be the couple’s first and Bruce’s second grandchild. Samuel and his wife welcomed a daughter, Lily, in 2022.

Jessica and Nicola have reportedly been linked since 2024, according to Us Weekly.

Nicola is a rider from Belgium who had a successful junior and young rider career, including European and Youth Olympic wins, before moving up to the senior level, according to his bio on GCC Global Champions.
