Mandy Moore Gives Birth, Welcomes Baby #1 With Husband Taylor Goldsmith


Mandy Moore is officially a mom! In an Instagram post shared Tuesday, Moore revealed she'd given birth to her first child with husband Taylor Goldsmith. The 36-year-old This Is Us star said she and Goldsmith were already head over heels in love with their sweet baby boy and shared his adorable name.

"Gus is here," Moore wrote on Instagram when sharing a photograph of her newborn son in a baby blue onesie. "Our sweet boy, August Harrison Goldsmith."

Moore went on to reveal that baby Gus had been "punctual," arriving exactly on his due date "much to the delight of his parents," who had, understandably, been eagerly anticipating his arrival. "We were prepared to fall in love in all sorts of brand new ways, but it goes beyond anything we could have ever imagined," she added.

News of Gus' arrival comes just one day after Moore revealed she'd been forced to change her initial plan to have a home birth due to a low platelet count. "My platelets have been dropping throughout pregnancy," Moore said Monday in an interview on the Informed Pregnancy Podcast. "It's something I never thought about until I got, I'd say early to midway through my third trimester. They sort of started dropping pretty precipitously and fell below the threshold that would make it possible for me to do a home birth. Unfortunately, my plans have had to change."
