AceShowbiz - Mandy Moore, known for her role as Rebecca Pearson on the hit NBC drama "This Is Us", delighted fans with a joyous announcement on her Instagram Story. On Friday, May 31, Moore shared that she and her musician husband, Taylor Goldsmith, are expecting their third child, a baby girl.
The announcement was cleverly illustrated with a photo of Gus and Ozzie wearing shirts that read "Big" and "Middle," respectively. "The third in our own Big Three is coming soon," Moore wrote in her Instagram caption, making a heartfelt reference to her on-screen "triplets" Kevin, Kate, and Randall, affectionately called "The Big Three" in "This Is Us". "Can't wait for these boys to have a baby sister," she added.
On Saturday, Moore took to her Instagram Story once again, sharing a stylish mirror selfie. Dressed in a sleeveless leopard-print dress and black sandals, she smiled as she cradled her baby bump. "Last night's lewk. Guess I don't have to try to camouflage anymore," Moore commented humorously.
Moore and Goldsmith are already proud parents to two sons, August (Gus), 3, and Oscar (Ozzie), 1. Having portrayed a mother of three in "This Is Us", Mandy Moore's real-life experience is mirroring her fictional role in remarkable ways.
The actress reflects upon her journey to motherhood with fondness, acknowledging that playing Rebecca Pearson has given her valuable insights into parenting. "[Playing a mom has] shown me that maybe I am not as patient as I thought I was…" she shared.
Moore's road to motherhood was not without its challenges. She previously dealt with fertility and intrauterine issues and was preparing for surgery when she discovered she was pregnant with her first son, Gus. "But there was a time when I thought I might not be able to have kids," Moore reminisced on Instagram, expressing gratitude for her family.
Adding to the excitement, Moore recently reunited with her "This Is Us" co-stars Sterling K. Brown and Chris Sullivan during a promotional photo shoot for their recap podcast, "That Was Us."
The heartwarming moment, captured on film, was marked with big smiles and congratulatory hugs. "In the middle of our photo shoot, Mandy Moore tells me she's got a new arrival," Brown wrote via his Instagram Story. "Couldn't have made another face if I tried! Congrats, Momma!!"
For young fans and followers, Mandy Moore's story is a beautiful testament to hope, resilience, and the unpredictable magic of life. Here's to wishing the Goldsmith family all the joy as they welcome their newest member.
