Mandy Moore Is Expecting a Girl After Having 2 Sons

On May 31, Moore surprised fans with a revealing Instagram post. The photo showed her two boys holding hands. The older boy wore a shirt with “Big” on it, while her younger son’s shirt said, “Middle.”

In the caption of her post, Moore wrote, “Sometimes life imitates art. The third in our own Big Three coming soon.” The reference to “Big Three” was a nod to the show “This Is Us,” where Moore played the mother to three.

She added, “Can’t wait for these boys to have a baby sister. 💓💓💓”

A fan of Moore’s almost immediately commented with a phrase from “This Is Us” that anyone who watched the show would recognize. “‘First came me and Dad said gee. Then came me and Mom said wee. Then came me and we said that’s THREE; BIG 3!’ Congratulations!”

When that phrase was used during the show, each of the three kids said one sentence of the three. Moore portrayed the “This Is Us” family matriarch, Rebecca Pearson. Milo Ventimiglia played the family patriarch, Jack Pearson.

The adult “Big Three” were played by Sterling K. Brown (Randall), Chrissy Metz (Kate), and Justin Hartley (Kevin). As fans of the show will remember, Rebecca and Jack had been expecting triplets. Kevin and Kate were born healthy, but the third baby was not.

In a twist of fate, Randall was born the same day and abandoned by his biological father. The baby joined the rest of the Pearson family to round out their “Big Three.”

Another “This Is Us” fan noted, “The fact that it’s 2 boys and a girl is just so perfect!!!” In the NBC show, the “Big Three” consisted of one daughter and two sons, as well.

Another of Moore’s fans commented, “For the past few years I’ve really been hoping one day you would get the chance to have a baby girl and your own Big Three, I can’t believe it’s happening I’m tremendously happy!!! The magic of life 🥹✨️💗.”

As People shares, Moore and her husband, Taylor Goldsmith, already have two sons. Augustus is 3 years old, and Oscar is 19 months old. The boys go by the nicknames “Gus” and “Ozzie.”

A different fan of Moore’s commented, “congratulations!!! that little girl will be so loved! 💓💓”

“Congratulations 🥳🎉🎂🎊🍾🍾🥰🙏🏻🙏🏻🥳🥳❤️❤️,” someone else added.

A separate comment read, “Yes!!! Two boys then baby sis is THE BEST 😍 congrats!!”

Within an hour after Moore’s Instagram post went live, over 210,000 people had “liked” the post to show their love and support. More than 3,750 people also commented during that first hour.

As of this writing, none of Moore’s “This Is Us” costars had commented on the post yet. Quite a few other notable celebrities, however, did.

Congratulatory comments came in from celebrities such as Minka Kelly, Katie Couric, Amanda Kloots, Michelle Monaghan, and Monica Lewinsky.
