Who Is Alanna Panday

Alanna is the daughter of Chikki Panday and wellness expert Deanne Panday, sister of Saiyaara actor Ahaan Panday, and cousin of actor Ananya Panday, making her part of the extended Panday family that also includes actor Chunky Panday. She and Ivor, an American filmmaker and photographer, married in Mumbai on March 16, 2023, after dating for several years, in a wedding that pulled in a long list of Bollywood names. The couple runs a joint YouTube channel and lives in Los Angeles with their son River, born in May 2024.

The Family's Reaction

The comments section filled up fast once the news went public. Deanne Panday wrote that she was becoming a grandmother for the second time, while Ananya Panday was among the first to react with excitement. Other well wishes came in from names including Shibani Akhtar, Rysa Panday, Lara Bhupathi, Dino Morea, Karan Singh Grover and Anusha Dandekar, reflecting how closely the Panday family circle overlaps with Bollywood's own social scene.

Their Journey So Far

This marks the second pregnancy announcement Alanna has shared with her followers in just over two years, having first announced River's arrival before he was born in 2024. The couple has kept most of the pregnancy details private so far, including a due date, choosing instead to let the Sicily video do the talking. Given how openly they have documented milestones from their wedding to River's birth, more updates are likely to follow as the pregnancy progresses.
