Alicia Vikander makes a rare public appearance with husband Michael Fassbender

Alicia Vikander made a rare public appearance with husband Michael Fassbender on Monday.

The actress, 34, and the Irish star, 46, were photographed at Barcelona airport with their two-year-old son after spending a few days at the destination.

Michael recently competed in the European Le Mans Series – an endurance car racing series that took place in the Spanish city.

At the airport, Alicia looked casually chic in a white sweater and light blue jeans paired with chunky sneakers.

Meanwhile, Michael wore cream shorts and a gray sweater as he carried their bags on a trolley.

Alicia was also seen carrying her son’s cute blue and white suitcase with a colorful design on it.

Michael began his motorsport career when he met actor Patrick Dempsey a few years ago on a long-haul flight from London to Los Angeles.

After Michael shared his passion for the sport, the owner of Dempsey Racing and former Le Mans driver contacted the heads of Porsche Motorsport Marketing and the actor’s racing career took off.

It comes after last summer Alicia opened up about the pain she went through after suffering an “extreme” miscarriage before becoming pregnant with her first child.

The Tomb Raider star revealed in September 2021 that she had quietly welcomed a baby boy with husband Michael earlier that year.

Alicia spoke about the ‘painful’ struggle she experienced during her journey to become a mother, she admitted in a new interview with The times that “it took time” for the couple to father their first baby together.

“We have a child now, but it took us time,” she said, before revealing that she suffered a “painful, extreme” miscarriage before getting pregnant with her son.

At that time, Alicia was starring in the Sky Atlantic TV show Irma Vep in which she played a pop star who is forced to go back on stage shortly after a miscarriage.

The actress said dealing with such painful issues on screen helped her deal with her own grief.

She also compared her experience to her 2016 film The Light Between Oceans, in which she starred opposite Michael, with the couple playing a childless couple who experience two miscarriages and end up adopting a girl lost at sea.

Alicia added: ‘[The miscarriage] was so extreme, painful to go through and of course it reminded me of making that movie [The Light Between Oceans]. That film now has a different meaning.’

The Ex Machina star added: “Sometimes you go through hard things in life and when you have a desk job you can get away from it all.

“But there are times when myself or co-workers went through something and, well, I can’t understand how they went on the red carpet after that. To be met by people who ask, “How are you?” Considering what they had just been through? Most people wouldn’t be able to leave their homes.’

Michael and Alicia got married in October 2017 – three years after they started dating, after meeting on the set of The Light Between Oceans.

She has avoided discussing her and Michael’s child publicly — or revealing their names — but in a recent interview with Harper’s Bazaarthe Oscar-winning star opened up about motherhood, saying she always puts her “little family” first.

She said, “In my little family, with my husband and my child, we always travel together. That’s the rule. We do odd jobs so one of us can always be with the baby.’

During that same interview, Alicia shed some light on her fertility struggles, telling the publication that she had “struggled for a while.”

“I’ve been trying to get pregnant for a while,” she said. “So I had some tough times during the lockdown. I struggled for a while. For a while I thought I couldn’t get pregnant.’

She added that she decided to talk about her problems to help other women going through similar experiences.

Alicia continued, “I kind of stopped and thought, ‘Am I going to talk about this?’ But I think it’s universal and so many women go through similar things. And it’s heavy.’

Alicia and Michael, who currently live together in Lisbon, Portugal, are known for being notoriously private and had not spoken before about whether they would have children together.
