Mandy Moore reflects on her third pregnancy
Moore reflected on the IVF treatment that they failed to obtain a viable egg and therefore no embryo. “And I was like, okay, well, this fixes that. If this is something that’s meant to be, it’s going to happen naturally,” the ‘Tangled’ star said in a candid interview on the Not Skinny But Not Fat podcast. Talking about her two sons, the actress mentioned that she was happy and grateful. “And then Lou had to show up,” Moore said of her third child, Louise “Lou” Goldsmith, who she welcomed in 2024. Moore revealed that her third child was a surprise. “We weren’t trying, but obviously we were open to everything because it’s IVF,” he said.
