Jennifer Meyer, the 49-year-old ex-wife of actor Tobey Maguire, was seen in Los Angeles on Monday, appearing ready to give birth at any moment. Photographs obtained by the Daily Mail captured her proudly displaying her prominent baby bump in a white crop top during an outing with her two teenage children, Ruby (19) and Otis (17).
Pregnancy Update
Meyer was out and about a week after her reported due date, which was said to be around Mother's Day. This upcoming child will be her first with her fiancé, Geoff Ogunlesi, a 34-year-old entertainment executive. The couple made their relationship red-carpet official in November 2023 at the Baby2Baby Gala and became engaged the following year.
Family Background
Meyer was previously married to Maguire, with whom she tied the knot in 2007, nearly a year after Ruby's birth and four years after their first meeting in 2003 during the production of Maguire's film Seabiscuit. Otis was born in 2009. The couple announced their separation in 2016, and Meyer filed for divorce in 2020, which was finalized later that year. Despite their split, they have remained close friends and committed co-parents.
On Monday, Meyer and her daughter both sipped green drinks from Pura Vida as they waited to cross the street. The celebrity jewelry designer wore a black semi-sheer maxiskirt with zigzagging lace designs, contrasting with her white top. She opted for comfort in coral-colored foam flip-flops and a gray long-sleeve shirt tied under her baby bump. Her accessories included a burgundy leather Chanel bag and dark Ray-Ban Wayfarers. Ruby wore a slightly cropped white T-shirt and relaxed-fit acid-wash jeans, while Otis chose a simple black long-sleeve shirt with pale-gray pants and black-and-white sneakers.
Fiancé's Background
Missing from the outing was Meyer's fiancé, Geoff Ogunlesi, who comes from a prominent Nigerian family. His father, Adebayo Ogunlesi, is an attorney and investment banker worth an estimated $2.6 billion, according to Forbes. Geoff Ogunlesi is a graduate of Amherst College and founder and CEO of the Ogunlesi Group, a music management company.
Meyer also comes from a notable family. She is the daughter of Ronald Meyer, a former NBC executive and COO/president of Universal Studios, who later became vice chairman of NBCUniversal. He co-founded Creative Artists Agency (CAA) and is currently CEO of Wild Bunch, a film distribution company.
Meyer's Thoughts on Pregnancy
Earlier this month, Meyer spoke with People about this new chapter. She described it as a fairytale experience, saying, "It's like all my wishes are coming true." She announced her pregnancy in a social media post in December and expressed a childlike anticipation. She noted that pregnancy at 49 is more exhausting but still "awesome." She praised Ogunlesi's positive attitude and shared joy in revealing the news to him.
Co-Parenting with Tobey Maguire
Meyer discussed her blended family with Maguire and Ogunlesi. She said that after their breakup, it was clear that Ruby and Otis came first. They wanted to remain in each other's lives, celebrating holidays and birthdays together. She called Maguire an "incredible father" and "incredible ex-husband," adding that Ogunlesi and Maguire get along well. In a December podcast, she described Maguire as her "best friend" and said their divorce taught her patience.
